Default FE Cost

I don't know about what Barry would charge but a very good FE with the right CNC heads EFI , dry sump etc. that would make over 900 Hp would be around $62,000. A really good one with Ti rods, feather weight crank and other upgrades is north of $74,000.
This is not a Cammer and no NOS, turbos or blowers just naturally aspirated FE with billet heads (that will live, not a drag race special). The heads alone are $6,000 bare. You could do a Cammer cheaper and probably make equal power but it doesn't fit most Cobra's and is heavier. There are lots of cheaper ways to get there but not normally aspirated.

Seeing that a <600hp, single carb FE from KC run in the $15-$20k,
Is a 900hp EFI FE a $25k?deal? or 35K ? more?


Ex,

Thank you for the guess
