Kerr1 i did the exact same thing that you are planning on doing except i had custom pistons made for my block. yes building your own motor is fun and not many people have built a stonger 5sfte but in all honesty a 3sgte swap is the way i would go now if i could. the horsepower to spending ratio sucks
