[lukieboy]

[Fun_Bucket]

If your buying a crate engine, does it matter where it's coming from?? Just a thought...

[greenacc]

[Morton]

I've got an old buick 3800 I could stick in a crate for you

Sorry, the point being - be more specific What do you want?

[lukieboy]

[rob drag racer]

stage 6 that i have to see do you have the parts list for the build

[Pub247]

Stages are the worst terminology used in performance vehicles ever. I'd prefer it people said things like rocket covers and platnium chambers

[rob drag racer]
