I was thinking around $11000
I would never consider building engine myself.. reputable builder only..
Reason I said $55k is to steer people back into reallity.. everyone thinks they can get a stroker 427 for same price, of course if they are willing to pay I will do it...I have seen some go close used with Roush 402..
I could use the existing drivetrain in a 65-67 Mustang project I have been thinking about..
Your right the market is getting ripe.. although I was told by Frank the other day that if anyone wants a roller it will be April-May 2008 before any are available..had a friend who showed some interest since he has an engine. Cashburn would know more about that..
By the way I love wheeling & dealing on just about anything and once in awhile get lucky and make a few bucks..then there are the other times
