Build estimate
Can anyone offer an estimate on building a 331?
Forged pistons Aluminum heads Good cam Good intake Plus misc. parts Got a friend with a project car and I told him I would inquire here. :metal: |
DIY cost or paying labor for someone else to do it? Carb or injected?
|
What he said and we need to know a hp goal also.
|
Injected
DIY with maybe some better qualified help 350-450hp? he's got a stock aode which will be redone some sort of new rear gears too :metal: |
DSS 331 kit. Currently on sale for $880. Normal price is 1200
New heads. 1000-1400 Intake. 400-700 Cam.. 300ish Budget an additional $500 (min) for fluids, timing set, oil pump, gaskets, new lifters, possible rocker arm upgrade, etc |
Oh yeah, machine shop costs can vary, budget a couple hundred for that
|
I would budget a $1000 for machine shop it you plan to balance everything and have them install pistons on rods etc.

Just a suggestion but i would buy as much GOOD used stuff as i could i bought a new 331 and all new parts to go with it...if i had it to do over i would have got a used intake,inj,headers,cai, ect...
|

I don't think he was expecting it to be that much but the information will be relayed. thanks everyone........:metal: |
