Dude this really is a no brainer. The old stroker motors used to burn oil because.......well what theOldman said. Unless you have tons of cash go with a pushrod. Hell even stock pushrod blocks can handle 550+ to the wheels Mexican, non-Mexican whatever. With the money you have go with a push rod period. Call Justin Burcham (410) 768- 3025. Tell him Jeff sent you. He has an account with D.S.S. so he gets it cheaper than you can out of the mags. END OF STORY!!!!!!!
