A very nice looking engine, George.

What were the HP and TQ figures, and what did you put it in?

You always do awesome work. Love the look of the injectors.

FE engines are like drugs - once you get started, it seems to go on forever... a little at a time. I started with a Genesis block and a Scat stroker kit. No big deal: 5 grand plus $200.00 for a cam, $1,500 for labor and I got a nice-sounding, good-looking engine for under 10 grand. Right. Then the calls start coming from the builder... "Hey you need the trick aluminum heads. They're only about $50 per horsepower". "Hey you need the roller cam. Only about $50.00 per horsepower", he continues. A week later: "Hey you need the heads and manifold ported. With all the cool stuff on the engine, it can't breathe". You get the idea.

FE parts are not dirt-cheap BB Chevy parts that the local Kragen has on his shelf. They all seem a more expensive for seemingly the same thing. And it takes more of everything than a Chevy to get the power.

Anyway, $22,000.00 is really easy to spend on a nice FE. I know .

By the way... the money is soooo worth it. A sound that still makes me stiff and torque up the wazoo.
