[QUOTE="7Lemons, post: 16514105, member: 184681"] I'm trying to do a build that's maybe around $6k and will handle up to 750 or 800whp someday... if I work my way up to that once I'm running return fuel system and E85. My local shop that has done work on my car will do the actual engine complete swap for *around* $1k. I was just looking at their offerings (Livernois) on their site (and it's the closest to me as well in case I want to drive it). Since I had the #8 failure, I'd love to get my gen 1 heads off and take them there for inspection/freshening up, etc. So with this Livernois forged bottom end, plus re-use my gen 1 heads and everything else, should get me something together under $6k, although I don't know how much it will cost to get the work done to the heads. I also have to actually get the heads off while it's in my garage where I don't have a lift (and the car has Kooks headers - man it's tight in there). I was looking for a set of lightly used gen 1 heads for a decent price (so I wouldn't have to bother removing mine), but have had zero luck so far. Thanks for the feedback so far man!!! [/QUOTE]
