Post Fake Plastic Engines?

Is this For real?

I believe I saw 41Clay mention these. Excuse my newbie question, but where would you find something like that?

They are advertised in most of the car/truck magazines. P-Ayr Engineering or something like that. They are pretty expensive for just an individual to purchase ( in the ads they suggest car clubs buying them ). They are used for setup purposes.

yep they have plastic engines and even transmissions they have threaded inserts in them so that you install headers intakes and i believe water pump and altenator power steering and such they have the heads molded to them great for fab work if you dont have a extra eng and they are lighter too my classic car show featured them last weekend
