I wonder how much $ diff there really is ?
Konrad box,trans,drive and steering around 16 to 17k motor with everything 45 to 50k and more than 700 hp high side is 67k low side 61ish that still looks better to me other than maybe the merc has better resale.. maybe.... like i said this is just a Chevy gen6 block nothing special... stock steel Chevy crank and rods..from someone like eickert you get a dart block, Carrillo rods and sonny Bryant crank sounds better to me! also it is not put together by some union worker at gm .. merc does not put the short block together...
