[QUOTE="Mulholland Man, post: 16501769, member: 191905"] $$$$ to repair and $$$$ to mod/improve. most of this bill is to bullet proof the engine and build it to handle more power than I will ever throw at it. Only 5-6k of that L&M Block is for the new replacement block itself, the rest is what you would already be doing if you were going to build the bottom end and swap out stock parts with heavy duty forged parts. That is the only way I justify spending this amount, is that, even if I were to buy another GT500 for 40-45k I would still end up spending around the same amount to build the engine. Given that I've already spent the better part of 10k on the suspension (Griggs SS ssystem with Torque Arm Welded to car) and another 10k on ther crap (pulley, JLT CAI, TB, Elbow, Short Shifter, exhaust, Clutch, Clear Bra, New Stripes, etc.), and I'm already into this 80k.....what's another 30K? Well....my marriage if I'm not careful, LOL. Gotta get back to work to make sum cheddah so I can resurrect her. [/QUOTE]
