How much horsepower does the board think a cast short block can hold. What I mean is a short block with cast pistons and cast crank with OEM rods.
I found a really good deal online for a remanfuctured engine useing all cast componets.
This seems like a really good deal. Just want to know if anyone has had any experience with a cast short block and do you think it would hold up to daily driving and drag strip duty. I will be putting about 325 to the rear wheels after assembled.
Here is the specs of the engine and the link.
