Default Crate engines anybody?

Has anyone checked out the 350 engines (325 & 365 HP) Ecklers is selling on page 5A of their new catalog. A bit costly but seem tempting for the rebuilding novice. $3300 & 3700 respectively. WOW! :chevy :chevy

Crate motors are a good choice these days, but not at that price... keep shopping.

Why not GM's crate engines, like the ZZ4?
