Anyone running legend motors

I was thinking about stepping up, maybe the 605 ci.

I am going to phone for pricing tomorrow and see what else is there for hidden costs.

I agree!!   :2thumbs:   But, there are better ways to go fast with a Hemi for the same or less money than those Legend deals....    :ylsuper:    :cheers:

I personally would piece my own engine together before buying one of those also. :2thumbs:
1970 Barracuda   (O^--^===|===^--^O)
1971 Barracuda   (O O {]{]{]|[}[}[} O O)
1970 Challenger  (O O [======R/T=] O O)
1971 Challenger  (O O ===== ===== O O)
I pay homage to the best Mopars ever built.

1 cam bearing was broke, top half thrust plate bearing was wiped out, 3 pistons had rings seized in and started scoring on piston. I am hoping to re ring and bearing the motor for the rest of the summer, I will look a building a stroker myself during the winter and or having a chat with the guy that built old schools motor.
I did talk to Ray Barton, they were pretty busy and referred me to Total Racing Components, they were quick to respond and his pricing was in the ball park.
