thanks guys you Rock!

He had Mark IV, Gen V, and Gen VI parts the last time I was there. I bought a set of rectangular port heads from him about 2 years ago. I was sceptical also so I asked him what if my head guy finds a crack or doesnt like the heads. He said just bring them back for another pair or refund. When I asked him where they were he said take your pick and led me to a line of shelving about 20 foot long loaded with heads. I looked around and found a pair that still had the black paint on them. Flipped them over and the chambers werent even black yet. I asked him what the deal was and he siad they probably came off of a engine that wiped a cam lobe just after start up and Merc replaced the entire engine. My head guy said they were as close to new you can get without buying from GM. I paid $500.00 for the complete heads plus he threw in an alluminum intake (GM non marine) he had laying around.

I'll be calling today!!!!!!!!

I called Ron Sprol a couple of weeks ago... he wanted $700.00 for a bare block, no crank, heads, etc. At those prices :
ie: Block $700.00 Heads $500.00 crank? rods? Pistons? Cam ?? Lifters ??? push rods?? Pan ??? Timing chain, gears & cover??? You would be money ahead buying a complete 1800 runsnew engine. Just my thoughts..... |
I belive Don has most of that stuff..just needs a block,rods,pistons. Thats 1500 tops + machine work.
On his budget that works. You can always spend more :) Dan |
