Will you build one for $3000 with Standard bore & standard rod & main bearings?
The guy doing Steve Fowlers flatheads back to factory specs is charging $4000ish.
I don't think I'll live long enough to need one built to that extent but I guess there's something to be said for having a new one as opposed to a reconditioned one.
If I had a 251 truck that had a non-original motor...I'd strongly consider a 265 to replace it.
There's no substitute for cubic inches!
