New shortblock for $600, all new gaskets for $250, heads milled ~ $100.

Self installed and you can have a new shortblock with 0 miles for just under $1,000.

I can install in 13-16 hours, start to finish. With all tools needed available.

Hey by the way Jon I contacted SuperSix on that $600 shortblock. That is for a rebuildable core shortblock. It is meant for the 3.8 guys looking for a stroker build-up. So if you have a source for a fresh shortblock at that price...I'm all ears.

I'm not charging anyone anything. I was mearly stating how long it would take me to do the swap with all the tools.

If you want a fresh, BRAND new shortblock from ford... you will pay $800 - $1,100.

That's how much I've been quoted.
