Unless you buy a used complete engine for like $2000-2500 CAD then use those parts to build a forged engine
I have no idea. Basically my worry is that after I go FI, I'll get used to the power and want more. So instead of going FI right away, I'd get a built engine and then feel much more confident increasing the power to 400+ whp.

So you're saying with a short block and heads, that's all I'd need? The rest of the components I could use from my own engine? Sorry, I just have zero idea how it works, I'm not mechanically inclined.
