Whats the best price anybody has seen for a ZZ454 crate. Thanks. :D

Haven't compared prices in a while, but these guys are usually really competitive:

The ZZ is listed as an option under the 454 HO and it's $5,695. Downside is they're in TX so you'd have to pay sales tax, but if you picked it up you could save shipping. I've been to the shop - they are really nice, knowledgeable guys. Good luck!

Tell Summit to match the price, then Summit will ship for like half price.

To my understanding, this is the same GM crate motor everyone sells - quality is the same. Autocenter actually works out of the same shop as StrokerMotors.com a/k/a Dallas Export Sales: http://www.dallasexportsales.com/
They build primo stroker motors. It's basically a 1-man operation (with folks to answer the phones and such). I talked to the builder and he took about a half hour or so to show me around the shop and explain how they build everything. I really like their 496 stroker, but it is a few more $$ than the ZZ454 - tough choice.
