DMC stage 1 and stage 2 engine differences

[Dracula]

Stage II and with lowered springs and suspension. That made the big difference in fuel economy.

I've noticed that Houston no longer has a price displayed for the Stage II engine. Additionally, if you go to the parts page where is shows the crate motors, it says no stock and a $0.00 price. Are the crate motors running out or something?

Last I heard they are saving the last of the full crate motors for the Stage III packages. Stage II's are now only done on exisiting engines.

Wow, I didn't know that. Do they still have the mileage restriction of 50,000 miles on Stage II upgrades?

Mine was going to be a Stage II upgrade to my motor I had, but ened up getting a new block, So I ened up with a Stage II crate Engine, but doing it the hard way. It was a $10,000.00 upgrade

I think you can get the Stage II crate for $9,000.00

I believe I got my Stage II crate motoro for 6,999 bucks back in 07. But if I were to need a new engine at this point, I would go through Josh.

Now I'm going with one of each, so it'll be an interesting comparison.

id be interested to hear your impressions of each after a few weeks of driving both.
