Unhappy No stroker kit for me

Well here's the story, to have that built motor I would need a new block. Since the car is so new, no one is selling a used block and I'd have to go through to get one. That would be another $2000 to add to $5200 and I just don't have the money to do that. My new route is to buy a used motor with 30 miles on it for $4000 and the 15-18 hours of labor to transfer the cams over and to do new head studs. So the new approach will be around $5500. If I had the money and time, I would go with the 2.3L but it seems that it's just not gonna happen.

wow the prices for the crate motors aren't bad at all. 3300 for a fully prepped block is nicey nice. I wonder how much HP it can hold?
