496 is small in my class. most run 540/555/598/ and some have 632cid. hell, one guy has a 512 with a D-2R procharger(1800hp). i can find fully built motors all day long. just was hoping somebody had something laying around and out of the sport or something like it. thanks anyway.

the bad thing about that is they stress the motors sell them for about $3,000 less and build a new one so you end up with a stressed motor
