[QUOTE="IUP99snake, post: 9700848, member: 7060"] As luck would have it, I have a list of all the parts required to assemble a long block from scratch. I had this report put together when a shop in Pennsylvania (Vello Performance) improperly installed a new forged motor built by Modular Ford Powerhouse. Vello Performance didn't bleed the coolant properly, overheated it and destroyed everything from the oil pan to the valve covers. So, I sued them. And to get the highest amount possible to sue them for, I parted together a replacement motor from as many individual parts as possible straight from the ford dealership. Of course, that was just to come up with a dollar figure. Did you know it costs about $10,000 just in parts to assemble a longblock from scratch using all brand new ford parts (except forged pistons and rods)??? Crazy! I ended up going to the junkyard and getting an aviator longblock for all the parts I needed instead of going to the ford dealership. Enjoy.
