It's a complete rebuild. I bought the engine thinking it had a rod knock and when I tore it down there was nothing wrong. So I figured I'd build it up and try to make more bottom end and mid range. Now I know I can put a cam in it but i'm looking for a little more than that and thats why I was thinking pistons and heads. As for buget i'd like to keep it under 1000 if possible. Buy the way it's not going into the 72 listed below it's going in a 1981 GMC 1/2 ton L/B 4x4.
