Default Thought you could not afford an all aluminum FE

Well we have put together a package that will knock your socks of when it comes to an all aluminum FE engine. You can now buy an all aluminum 482 C.I. FE engine from Keith Craft Performance for what most others charge for an all aluminum small block. We know which one will hold its value better and get you more attention. How about 14,900.00 complete.
Here is what you get: Pond fully machined aluminum side oiler block, Scat or Eagle cast steel crankshaft, Scat I-beam rods, Diamond dish pistons for 10 to 1 compression , Mahle, rings, Clevite or Federal Mogul bearings, Zero balanced, rear main seal, Comp Cams flat tappet camshaft and lifters, cam retaining plate, Ford Racing double roller indexable timing set, slinger, stock front cover and pointer, damper sleeve, Proffesional Products SFI damper, Moroso or Canton front sump oil pan and pick up tube with dip stick, Melling HV oil pump and HD oil pump drive, all gaskets, ARP head studs for aluminum block, Edelbrock KCR Stage 1 heads with 2.19-1.75 valves, dual springs, Comp Cams 10 degree retainers and locks, inner spring cups, seals, Smith Brothers pushrods, Erson roller rockers, ARP rocker arm stud kit, Edelbrock gasket matched intake, Edelbrock aluminum water pump, Ford Racing CXobra LeMans or Keith Craft valve covers, MSD distributor set up with correct timing curve and gear, KC wires for FE engine, wire looms, Quick Fuel carburetor, carburetor studs, nuts and gasket, distributor hold down completely blue print assembled with parts, build, balance, and dyno sheets. Engine will be dyno tested and tuned, dye checked for oil leaks, leak down performed on dyno, all bolts re-checked, carburetor tuned and replaced if not correct, timing checked and engine ran for durability and performance. These engines will make at least 525 HP and 540 ft/lbs of torque with a mild solid flat tappet camshaft which will be broke in with Joe Gibbs break in oil and Comp Cams additive. Engines may make more with bigger camshaft and other options. The standard camshaft will be about 232 @ .050 intake and 240 @ .050 exhaust with about .560 to ..580 lift on a 112 lobe seperation.
A lot of people have wanted an 427 FE engine for their Cobra's but thought they could not afford it, well here is your chance to finally have one. If you would like a cast iron block you can deduct 750.00 and we will use a Genesis cast iron block instead of the aluminum Pond block.
Have any questions please feel free to call Tony, Lance or Keith at 870-246-7460. Stage 2 heads add 1000.00, hydraulic roller camshaft and lifters add 600.00, Aviad oil pan add 300.00 and there are other options as well.
We stand behind all of our engines for 2 years and 24,000 miles when installed properly and not used for racing.
Thanks, Keith Craft
