Aluminum block for $250?

[Duncan]

Good deal or not? Friend of mine is thinking of starting a N/A build for his Mach (I think he is looking for around 400 - 500 hp). What can these handle power wise?

If it's a good deal, someone is going to pick it up quick now that you posted it on here

i think they are selling a 03 cobra for $250, and the cobra has an alum block in it since they didn't come with alum blocks, great deal!

^ uh, yeah. Hell, I might call the guy and get it. The little 4.6 needs a new motor anyways.

Thats why I posted it, we arent ready to start this project anyway as we have a ton of research to do first. If it is aluminum I am sure he meant 03 Mach 1, I believe these sell around a grand new.

No idea, the ad is also a bit vague. And I dont know enough about them to go look at it.

[Dlachance]

He is probably trying to say it is stwndard bore not needing machined. Anyone building a hi hp motor will have it re-sleeved and machined anyways. Good deal though.

Wap block, those can handle a lot of power, its not a bad deal.

They weigh a bit less than the teskid blocks too , for your power goal it will do just fine
