Working Some people simply have an attachment to their everyday vehicles and don't want to buy a new car if their current vehicle hasn't broken down.

SHORT BLOCK VS LONG BLOCK

A common question among newcomers to crate engines is: Is a short block smaller than a long block?The answer is no. They're the same size but the titles of these crate engines can be misleading. A "short block" engine is one in which they've left many of the parts off of the engine. (i.e. Heads, rocker arms, oil pan, etc.) So, they have been "shorted" from the long block engine.

SMALL BLOCK VS BIG BLOCK

This is usually in reference to the overall engine size. Also, the Big Block engine puts out more torque, power and weighs more. Small block engines are commonly for large cars and performance cars while big block engines are commonly used for trucks.
