I would not be opposed to a new long block. I am looking more for reliability than more power

I’d like to hear opinions about the ZZ502 shortblock for marine use, but that with a cam swap and some heads from ADK61 should be a stout and reliable package. Probably into it $10k at that point though. |
well as you can see...the valvetrain is the weak link in a big block so I would spend the money there for reliability for sure...quality roller cam, lifters, and rockers....and a side effect of that reliability is power so its a win win lol

Isn't this a suitable replacement block for the power he wants? https://www.gmperformancemotor.com/parts/19170540.html |
If you do go with a stock bore I have some low hour JE forged flat tops free for the price of shipping. |
