I don't know how much I'd sell it for, but I'm definitely going for longevity with this setup...
so I'm likely going to just stay with the whole stock top end.

Yeah this is the motor in the car. I have another ride for when it's down and I don't plan on...
doing anything to the top end, basically only rods.

So a little update...
Sorry I was out of town and didn't reply for a couple days, but your input is appreciated.
So I think I decided to just build the engine I have. With the low-ish mileage I probably won't need to do rings, and since I'll be keeping the top-end completely stock the good maintenance on the low mileage engine will be beneficial. Plus it'll help resell value
Also I won't have to deal with selling and shipping an engine.
Like I said, I'm only doing rods.
