My brother is a narcissist, and I have four sisters (one who has passed who was co-dependent with a lot of anger in childhood and adulthood, married a physically abusive narcissist at 15), another sister who is married to a narcissist since age 15, a minor narc sister who also married at 15,and another sister who married straight from home at 18 to a very abusive narc.
For $1800 you could buy a complete cam kit-cam,lifters, springs, timing chain, rockers, pushrods etc-from Comp Cams or Crane or Lunati, an Edelbrock carb and intake, a set of headers, and still have a little left over for rings, bearings and oil pump and maybe minor machine work-i.e.-turning the crank .010 under, re-sizing the rods etc.
If the short block was in good shape-you could build your whole engine for that. That's a no-brainer. Anyone would say go with the 350. Further-if the engine needs a new crank or pistons-stroker kits are so cheap for small-block Chevys-I've seen 383 crank, rod and piston kits with rings,bearings and the oil pump for as low as $399!
Crow funerals-It may be a stretch to call them funerals, but these birds have been seen gathering in large groups around the body of a dead crow with which the particular living crows were familiar.
