Just curious who offers the best work and customer service. Part quality is important. I'm looking for something that will stand up to a LE3.I'M THINKING MAYBE A 396

Eric, when you say No core charge, do you mean that I can keep my engine, or that you dont charge me up front?

 

it would seem that you would keep your old motor.

 

Eric,

You should add which of those setups are 4 bolt and 2 bolt.

Bret

 

Also, how much juice would the 396 take????

 

www.golenengineservice.com is hard to beat. I just love my 383 .

 

I would go with a 383 over a 396 better rod angles less stress on the wrist pin from what i ve been told

 

You can keep your old engine.

 

Thats the one Im ordering next week, to bolt an LE3 setup onto. Just undecided on weather or not to get the 4 bolt mains...

 

i love my LT4 396 long block from golen.

 

4 bolt mains are always worth it... that's why I asked which packages come with them or not.

I don't even do LT1 motors without 4 bolt mains anymore.

Bret

 

Yea, thats what Im thinking. Ive alreaty got about $8000 into this setup with every little thing I need, whats another $800 to take the only possible weak point out of the setup.

 

What the difference between 2 and 4 bolt??Where it is the 2 or 4?
As i know my blokc is cast iron! 1996 Lt1!
And can i find some where aluminum?
If replace cast iron with aluminum it can reduce weight of the car a lot!
I am not right?
Thanks!
