Which 496 kit
Blew the motor Sunday, so planning on rebuild wondering which
Brand Stroker kit would be best? Or reputable |
Sorry to hear that! Wish I had some advice but this is out of my area of expertise! I'll be following this thread though because I'm planning a rebuild in a couple years and "love a good stroking".:thankyouthankyou:
