Help with picking new motor
I want to up grade my 3.3 to something better... Im really leaning to the tm523 but I have a trinity pipe that i want to continue to use... I know they sell the 523 without the pipe but its $250.
What other drop in motors are good to use with a Trinity pipe... I want it to be a drop in i dont want to buy a new motormount and all that. and under 250$

Or if you want to stick with a small block and just use a bump start the O.S. 18tz is a great motor. Thats what I run. And for only $140 its a good motor. Then you just need to get a starter box. Finding one used isn't that hard to use either. And usually they go for around $60 used.

a picco is not a direct drop.. it requires a new mount. os .21 or .18 are the two best direct drops

What about that RB 21 killer? It comes with mount pipe and everything too right? I saw it on Amain today. It looks good to me. Any one have experience with it?
