Hello Fred and BP450...
I have two cobras now.... one is my Unique with a stroked 427.... and the DVSF FFR Coupe that is under construction in Ohio. Don delivered the engine there two weeks ago. I have owned four Cobras total : Shell Valley 302/T-5, SPF 460/Tremec and now these two. Pictures of the Unique...nicknamed "Junior" are in my gallery...don't ask about the nickname.
I'll let Don respond to how much to build a similar engine to mine but, the carburated version was quoted at 8500.00 complete with alternator, pulleys, AC compressor, brackets, belts, wiring and dynoed. The engine management sytem..Electromotive TEC 3 and the downstacks, billet fuel rails and intake was an additional $6000. Both configurations carry Dons 12/12 warranty. My engine complete as you see it was $16,500.
Miinnesota classics engine pricing compared favorably with Engine factory, Ford crate motors ( when you get everything up and on) and several other vendors I looked at. The internals...rods, crank, heads etc. were all top shelf components.
The details are in another thread:
530 HP 516 lb. ft. of torque
BTW I like your gallery....how much for the Cat ?????
