Ford Motorsports block, Scat crankshaft, Callies rods, Trick Flow A460 heads, etc, etc. High quality stuff.

Complete engine from oil pan to Quick Fuel Dominator carburetor. All pulleys, brackets, alternator, starter, and a pack of adult diapers.

Obviously, less expensive engines are available. I could build a 630 hp 385 series engine for probably around the $14000-15000 mark.
Brent when you say Ford Motorsports block are you referring to the A460 block? Does the parts and labor to stroke these engines out to 604 CI run pretty much the same price of going 512, 534, 557 ect or is there a point at which you run into some machining expenses? Why the Trick FlowA460 heads over the Kasse P51 and lastly what size headers and side pipes would you have to run in a cobra? When I decide I am ready to cut my life short I will make sure I have you build one of these. I doubt Perry would even participate in the install
