Not Ranked
sizzler You guys are not taking into account that the block needed to be check and maybe machine work for starters. The heads had larger valves installed and ported or CNC. Scat crank, 500.00$ balanced and checked for bearings. Rods weighted and evened up to the same weight. Add all the other things on this motor, Speed-pro system 2550.00$ injectors 600.00$ throttle body 550.00. electric water pump 300.00 Dove intake 500.00,cam and lifters 725.00 Valve train( rocker stands, supports, shafts, and rockers400.00, timing gear set,100.00 Gaskets etc200.00 custom pushrods, 150.00. I can keep going, I think I can find the rest if I figure every other part needed. 13.5K for my shelby in 97 minus the speed-pro brain and injectors, block was 5G and the heads where 2850 with CNC work. Eagle rods,Aria pistons, crane cam, Hydro lifters, stock other parts. Machine work included for short block only. Question, When have you ever found a story on anything that was the STRAIGHT TRUTH?   Got to sell those Rag Mags. I am gald that an FE build up was put in a magazine.  Barry R seams OK from his e-mails so until other proof is needed, I except it. Rick Lake
