rotating assembly is cheaper and the coyote stock block is good for over 1,000 HP.

only reason i'd get a shortblock is to assemble it at a slower pace in preparation for the future.

in my area we have alot of machine shops I could use if I need to machine the block. but I am trying to figure out if the MMR kit, livernoise, DSS or Boss setup would be better than one another, not looking to set the world on fire but 800-850 wheel on 14-16lbs is what I am looking to achieve!

Buying a mail order motor is always risky. Always better going local if u have someone good locally. Atleast if u have problems u can deal with them face to face.
My budy bought a built 03 cobra motor from Livernoise and it was good.
