Arrington 392 5.7 based short block with my stock heads and other goodies?

OR

Arrington power trip package heads, cam and TB on my stock bottom end?


Keep in mind I am a rookie at mods so if I'm retarded don't feel bad saying so.

Is the 392 that is on sale now for $3999 forged?

I am also assuming my heads and such will work on here.

What kind of power can I expect?

Erik how much for labor?

TIA dudes.

If he does this, will this motor still have the mds system, or does that go?

I would not hesitate to pull the trigger on a forged 392 first.

Can be turned off though if desired?

I use the auto stick 90% anyway, only use full auto on the open highway.
