[QUOTE="Nazman, post: 7587314, member: 986"] We all know that, but the argument goes further than that. Boost vs CIs vs RPM vs Durability Lets utilize some advertised Modular Performance prices for a short block: "Stage II" 284CI Short Block -$3299.00 *You must supply your own block and crank Big Bore/Stroker -$5857.00 *Boss5.0 Block Included *New Crank Included So, that is a price diference of: $2558.00 By keeping it simple, the 284 is lots cheaper but if you do the right math, its lots closer than you may think. With the BB/Str you get the Bad to the bone Boss Block and new Crank. If yor stock motor is running, you could sell the short block as a running unit or sell the Block and Crank and make some cash there. Lets say you could get 500 bucks for the Teskid block/Kellogg Crank, that would bring the additional cost down to ~2058.00 which is still quite hefty. So, what do you do? Do you rather go with the 284 at the cost of extra boost/RPM or make same power at lots less boost @ less RPM, or the much, much, much more TQ and response that the 322 would provided? More coments?
