Not a bad price considering all the goodies on and in the engine!

One day I'll do something like that for my truck.....

Only $10 Grand

and that same 10 grand will almost build the short block for my Ranchero.... Guess it all depends on what you want and how bad you want it..... If you're willing to settle for less, fine. If not, if you're going to play, you're going to pay. How much you pay depends on how good a player you want to be!!!!

Aluminum block, billett crank and rods, small base circle roller cam and lifters...... doesn't take long.

With a bit of a price break, think I'll have the short block together for just a shade under 10.....
