$20,500 for a new 452 FE from Shel it doesn't make sense to me playing the game with a 45 yr old engine you can easily get the same money into. Do you know how many guys I've talked to that have std bore unmolested 427 sideoilers lately, what a bunch of BS. I would use a vintage motor if that was the theme or an original.
