FUNFER2 - that pretty much sums it up (and personally, I'd rather have my 450HP FE than a different series engine having 50, 100, or even 200 HP more). BUT, don't put yourself in financial straits to get an FE; don't take food off the table, and don't scrimp on your kids' education. Economic times are tough right now, and over-extended folks are going under. I wouldn't even advise borrowing the money -- if you can't take it out of the bank without it hurting then it would probably be smarter to save your money and deal with it at a later time.
