Combination Motorsports - Crate Engine Prices?
I'm still trying to decide whether to buy a block and do a rebuild myself or just save a lot of time and just buy a crate engine.
Combination Motorsports seems to be highly recommended around the board. They have a variety of crate engines with various head setups. They don't list prices for their engines and they're closed for the weekend so I'd have to wait till Monday to get any sort of answers. I'm hoping someone's dealt with them and could give me some information.
My concerns are first of all cash - how much say a baseline 355 would cost me. I can do the install myself so labor is not an issue. Secondly it needs to pass smog. Has anyone purchased a crate engine from Combination Motorsports?
Or if you have an opinion as to whether doing a rebuild myself or buying a ready to rock crate engine would be more time/cost effective I would also appreciate it. Thanks for your help.

Unless you have very specific ideas for building an engine, and they're out of the mainstream, then the most cost effective and practical thing to do is to buy an engine complete from a reputable builder.
