The REAL DEAL, DHD Budget Hooker Short Block PLUS

DHD's Duramax engine program is known nationally for its durability, attention to detail and quality components. You wont find the value that this build offers anywhere else.

DHD's Budget Hooker builds are designed for customers looking to increase reliability and performance at a moderate level. Our short block plus is by far our most popular build configuration. Its perfect the customer looking for a professionally sealed and prepped short block ready for cylinder heads. Much like the standard budget hooker short, its a unbeatable value!

Due to nearly infinite variables its very difficult for us to assign a horsepower rating to this build. We can however assure you that many of our customers are successfully running this build with 600-750HP. These build components pair well with upgraded turbochargers and injectors.

If your looking for a cheaper short block solution, check out our bare short block! Our bare short blocks come as block and rotating assembly only. Its perfect for customers looking for a professionally assembled lower end and don't mind some extra work transferring tins and covers.
