No worries. Just make sure when you're building your motor you take plenty of pics and keep us updated regularly!

do you want the long or short story bud....
well i went into auto1 (probably not the smartest move) and asked if they could find out about a 331 stroker kit for me through rocket, after hassling them twice i gave up and decided to go through rocket direct, and get this, after sorting it all out, they sent me a stroker kit for a 5L HOLDEN engine!!! so i doubt i'll be buying much through there from now on!

Or we bring it in from the US ourselves... Dependant on final pricing.

I've found VPW are more likely to whack some off the price of an order.
Probably not such a big consideration for a workshop.
