I think the market tends to go up and down on these. Several factors tend to drive costs up including Kirkham, ERA, Superformance hold values well. Big blocks seem to be more expensive than the small block stroker motors.

The one thing for sure is they are getting more and more expensive to build as parts, engines and labor are all pushing higher. It would take close to $90k to build what I bought for much less today. I don't necessarily agree you can find big block 427's that are low mileage in the $40k range. I watch Cobra Country and just don't see them anywhere close to that. Educate if I am wrong on that, but it's just my opninion.
