Long. Unless you want to have some custom heads installed (ported, etc.).
Then, get a short block and pick up some boneyard heads for rework. (Much
cheaper that way.)

Ah ok. So what would be the best way to go, long or short? My
rationalization is to just pay the extra 'change' and get everything
complete, with the long block.
