$10,000 engine?
Is it possible to spend that kind of dough on a engine rebuild?

The 460 looks good. I have never rebuilt an engine so I was a little shocked at what the guy wanted.
Hey, Fomoko could swap this engine for that Chevy motor in his Roadster.

Oh yea, I saw that as well, The owner may have put that kind of money into it, but I wouldn't expect him make $10000 on it.
I'd rather go for the Ford Racing 514 Crate. ford $8000 Then again, I'd rather build my own, may cost more, but I'll get what I want.

HI and welcome aboard Eagle460. What is your Manitoba location?
No problem spending $$ on an engine, my 390 is mostly stock except for the 428 crankshalf which I already had, cost over $3,500 with all new internal parts and balancing.

Yeah its pretty crazy how much a guy can spend on a motor. The stroker I would like to build someday is gonna cost alot too. Will have oodles of power though, and I will robably only build an engine like that once.
