Can you make a 350 HO Crate Motor better

Hey All,
One point I did not stress as well as I should have was = purchase packages whenever possible. Unless you are a shop with tons of builds proving the mixed parts idea then let somebody else pay for dyno time. The addition of a roller cam is a needed step to enter the next HP level but this step is also available as a crate choice and at a much better bang for your buck. Purchase a MATCHED component list from a single source rather than piece parts from various sales or sources. Mega Dollars for research or matching the components (cam 2 heads 2 intake) is what manufacturers invest with the 100's of dyno runs and experience to build a better package and this makes single source purchasing or Package components a must for most people including me of course.
In the end a crate engine is probably available and with a full warranty to make it even a better deal. If you want even more HP then there are custom builders who can take you to next level but they are hard to find
and a great reputation is a must. A shop like K C here on the site has invested tons in his reputation and done all the dyno pulls to learn his craft. This is not Johnny at the corner Exxon station who put a water pump on your sisters Yugo.
I love a high winding small block and just the tone gives me a warm and fuzzy but also belong to the Size Does Matter club. Right now I have a small block in my driver but it ain't no big block and I miss that!!! Give me a big block any day, its like sex I guess, it is all good but some is better.
