a 4.2 long block is a 3.8 stroked to a 4.2 and it has every thing you need to bolt it up (other than the tranny)...a long block is a engine with the heads and the intake....a short block doesnt have the heads or intake

it would be the same thing as stroking your 3.8....and it all depends on what you want to do to your car.....if you want to go all the way your looking at spending alot of money but just mild you wont spend but a couple of grand

LTs are the best flowing. But if you have emissions you can fail the visual, and be rejected for inspection.

Long tubes are the best flowing headers. The thing is if you have emissions testings in your state which most states do you may not pass inspection.

Ask your DMV or go to a state inspection place and ask, but from what I know NM does have emissions testing. Also Smog testing.
