What is the problem with a couple of you ? Are you actually trying to upset me almost to the point of being rude ! It 's a very simple question and you're making this discussion tougher that it needs to be. I don't know how to make my point more straight across ?
It's easy and your making it too hard & harsh. For you two, either take a Valium or please don't reply any longer. I mean no disrespect but, you're just not getting my point where the others are.
One more time- I asked how you can beat KC's 514, with 700 HP for $10,600 vs the FE for $17,000 and much lower HP. I don't care it's it aluminum, make them both aluminum or iron as far as I care.
Decision #1
FE- for $17,000 and 580 HP
514- For $10,600 and 700 HP
Total difference = $6,400 .
Decision #1
Is the FE worth the difference in price ?
Decision #2
Is the difference in price worth having a FE for $6,400 ?
Decision #3
Other than the aluminum being lighter, why is it worth $6,400 more ?
Question #1 For the money, which engine would you buy and why,........ in detail ?
Question #2 Is the choice for you only a FE, and less HP/Torque does not matter ?
Question # 3 Would the 514 with 700 HP and the great price of $10,600 win you over and the originality not be a factor ?
As a note- if anyone can build me a FE with 700 HP, for $10,600 please let me know. That, would really turn my crank ! (like that could happen)
Also, I think my FE sounds awesome so, what does the 514 sound like ?
And, what makes the FE sound so different ? This is my first Ford. Is it like a Big block Chevy vs a Hemi ? (Hemi sounds cool) !
So, let's quit the nick picking, be rational and not make this a augment.
I'm just wanting the pro's and con's of both. Be

guy's, ok !
