The 'Bird is having a hard time staying running. Im effin fed up with this. Its time to start buying engines one part at a time or as a turn-key. The stores I've shopped at so far are ClassicIndustries.com, Autozone.com, EBay.com, Jegs.com, Summitracing.com, JCWhitney.com, NapaOnLine.com, and CSKAuto.com. Where else am I forgetting about?

thats another reason I need the other stores that I may or may not be missing. I might build my own. Then again, it would be nice to be able to merely stab a mill after this whole fiasco

www.paceparts.com http://www.sdparts.com/ Both carry factory crate engines at unbeatable prices for stock engines. I have taken printouts of prices from these website to my local dealer and they met their prices after shipping was added in. I didn't save any money, but I was dealing with a local dealer if I had any issues.
