Chilibit is right on target, what ever makes you smile when you pop the hood!

Now the original question suggested that for a mere $5,600 more one could move from an iron 428 to an alloy Shelby. Assuming some sales of parts, etc. etc. MY argument simply points out you might want to re-consider the math on the dollars. I say your looking at $26K, er, $30K before the Maui Wowi smoke clears with an alloy Shelby. Half that for an iron FE.

Return on investment was listed as a factor. The ROI looks better with an iron side oiler, a "real" one, not a modern one.

Just saying it's simple math.

ROI is not a factor for me, I'm in it for the long haul, no intention of selling anyway.
