Spanno01,

Ford Motorsports stopped carrying the M6010-A96 years ago, so you cannot get a new, Ford branded Alum BB from the catalogue. If that is important to you, it will have to be hunted down.
However the tooling now belongs to Carrol Carter @ C&C motorsports (C and C MotorSports The updated “Roberts Design block” is available in many different configuration (Deck heights, cranks dia, oiling systems etc)
FYI, a standard 10.320, wet sump, RD block books at about $6000. I do see complete motors come up from time to time on Racingjunk.com Race, performance & street cars, engines, engine parts, trailers for sale this is on there now.
Aluminum 632, C460, Callies Crank, JE pistons, GRP rods, Bullet Cam, Jesel belt drive, ATI balancer, Crowler lifters, Roush ported C460 heads, titanium ex valves, Jesel rockers, PAC valve springs, W&W Sheet metal dual intake, Pro-System Carburetors. 2 stages of nitrous, wet sump oil pan, Peterson adjustable oil pump. Engine has approximately 40 1/8 mile and 15 ¼ mile passes.

****$16,500 ENGINE ONLY *****

Clearly not a street motor, but it would be a great pile of parts to start with. Sell off the stuff you don’t want to finance a more street friendly build. Prob. more than $30k in parts

Dry sump:
If you are going road racing with a BBF, it is really a good choice. Unfortunately, you may have difficulty finding a “kit”. I have been piecing mine together (not done yet). I have the pump, tank, fittings, lines. I still need the bracket, pulleys and pan. I have my mind set on a two piece pan with oil squirters, something nobody builds…yet.
This is my pump. It is a 5 stage Ed Pink with a de-air-iator (Oil-Air separator)

And my tank is a Moroso with heaters (blue) and a Thermo-couple (Orange)


I buy a lot of ex-Nascar/Indy parts and re-purpose them! Lol
