Dont get the Evo 3 Red Dot.
Rods don't last long, and are pretty much non-existant - they're hard to find nowadays I believe.
If it was between those 2 only, Id go the Drake, but I've heard nothing about it.
You can get a new RB Junior engine with its own pipeset for around 250. Or you could get one of those STS engines, heard good things about them.
