    So I needs some advice on what I should build NOW!

    I have a few options on engines sizes


    Soo my cheapest route is to go with m20b25
    Due to another person selling me rings and bearings for dirt cheap
    I can completely rebuild this engine the cheapest with more money for my turbo
    So for b25
    It would be 160$ for rings water pump timin belt and bearings full bottom end gasket kit
    Then another 95 for the b25 pistons because mine are shit
    Then 200$ for the other parts I bee gaskets,and misc parts ect
    So I'm at 455$ out the door but b25 it has a higher compression and not as good for boost
    But I can Score a SETA Bottom end for around 100 bucks
    But them I have to dish out more money on rods and bearings because i can get b25 for dirt cheap
    I also have a b27 block with pistons crank and Rods
    But it's going to at least cost me a minimum of 500$ to rebuild this block as well due to having to buy parts at a more expensive price but i dont have to buy pistons for it .

    but basically
    I can build b25 for the cheapest
    Or I can build a b27 stoker for around 150 more
    Or a seta stroker a minimum of 700 bucks
    Soo what should I do
    B25 short skirt pistons 272 cam 500.00 highest compression
    B27 eta stroker 272 cam 575.00$ Lowest compression
    B27 seta stroker 272 cam 700.00 medium compression
    help me out on some advice
    All the money I save goes to my turbo set up

    Id build the b25 cr is still low and still good for turbo, even though its a little higher than the other block build options.
    That means you save money for better turbo like a better external gate, manifold etc. Which could save you headaches later down the road because you bought better rather than cheaping out on shit parts that will break later down the road.

        I'd get a 44mm tial. What turbo and manifold are you planning to get?
