    I am looking to buy a 3406B cat short block. Where are you guys purchasing your bigger engine components? Cams, Heads, turbos, manifolds, aftercoolers, fuel pumps, and all the other big dollar fun stuff. I'm not looking for OEM necessarily, and I'm not in a huge rush to build the motor, but I do want to build it with some strong low end and healthy boost. Anyone have any recent experience with purchasing parts, and from where? We're you happy with your experience? Do you feel it would be better to buy a long block or short block and upgrade the cam and head myself? It has been a very long time since I've done a build like this so long that every place I used to buy parts no longer exist. Within the next year I'll be do for an overhaul, I would prefer to have my motor built and ready to go when that time comes. It will cut down on my down time.

    Thanks everyone,
