I would say between $2000 and $3000 for shortblock and heads. -------------------- 93GT 306 H/C/I supercharged 06 Cummins 6spd 90 GT 5sdp daily driver HCI 16 Hellcat Charger 91GT aod(sold) 88GT5spd(totaled) Posts: 213 | From: Vacaville | Registered: Mar 2006  |  : 93mustang50 ¯ Member # 6642 posted                              sorry guys, didnt read close enough(little drunk, yes it noon)heads and machined block $800 sounds about right. -------------------- 93GT 306 H/C/I supercharged 06 Cummins 6spd 90 GT 5sdp daily driver HCI 16 Hellcat Charger 91GT aod(sold) 88GT5spd(totaled) Posts: 213 | From: Vacaville | Registered: Mar 2006  |  : svfreerider87 ¯ Member # 5748 posted                                 I found shop that'll take care of the block (stroke it to 331 magnaflux etc...) and check and reset my heads plus mildly port them for 800$ sounds like a good deal yes?
