Default Budget

Yes the budget determines everything. I had planned on using the lowly 326 while saving up, plus the better machine shops at least by reviews left online have a 4-6 month wait here in Oregon. But I got took on the 326 and can't see pouring more money into the 326. Now as I get more information the stock 75 400 pistons may not be worth reusing even if within specs. Marking the rods if the engine was to be done on a budget. Now I may have to start a new thread on what would be a good combination of parts for my intended use of the 400 engine in my 65 Tempest.
