That seems like a very fair price also

$3300 is a very good price indeed.

This car makes it extremely hard to use my bonus/tax return "wisely."

I need to not vent my current block.


Edit: I'm at least two years from wanting this though. I've got enough on the plate now.

I think a picture window on both sides would add quite a bit to it's resale value.

Ha ha ha...Venting is not a bad thing especially after a big Mexican meal! I vented a block on my 96 Cobra. You would think it could help it breath easier but it was tough keeping the oil level full. Good for Brenspeed though for stepping up to the plate and filling a void left behind by Saleen and Techno!!

I wonder if they can change out the pistons and give a N/A guys a 302 CI option??

I wonder if they will do a stock displacement version. I would honestly like a 4.6L built for boost than a 302 stroker. Although what they probably do about now is recycle the old engines they had around by boring them out and puting in their goodies. I wonder if they will do an installed price package.

Looks like a fair price to me, although an aluminator for a tick over 4k is not a bad price either. I know someone who droped close to 8k on a 4g63 4cyl engine rebuild.

I would've considered this had they offered in a couple years ago.

That way, the MMR haters of the world would stop talking sh*t about my motor.

Very true. Could possibly be due to the fact that my original MMR build was tore all the way down, then re-built by another engine builder. Who knows.

I'm just glad it runs now without issues.

So now I have a decision to make...Is my friend TacoBill a blind squirrel...or a nut?? Well I already know he's nuts! But cool! I'm just glad it all worked out for you in the end.

What made you do that? (I'm too curious for my own good sometimes)
