They still have 'em priced as though they're sniffing really strong glue? |

Dan, It was pricey, but isn't it rare enough to justify? I'm way too far away and still do not have a right car for a /6, but if I were there, would get it. And it is new, isn't it? |

No. Not even now they've halved the asking price from $3500 to "only" $1750.  Seriously: Y'gonna buy a $2K engine block, spend another $2K (easily) building it up…and then actually drive the car? |

Dan yes, I would. Man this world is really weird. I got so used to see how difficults things are for us here, that I started daydreaming about it, but honestely I think I'd face it. Check out he links below, one dyno engine shrot block for 175 and the aluminum block for 1750. But honestely, I uess they should take offers in both. http://chucker54.stores.yahoo.net/4sl6shbldyen.html http://chucker54.stores.yahoo.net/adim121.html |

Well, it's not for me to decide how anyone else gets to spend his money — if you were closer to it and wanted to do it, I'm sure you'd get all the support you need from this board.

The block is NOS? Dyno engine? 4 litle is how much in 225? I thought it was a 3.7. |

"4.0" is not correct — the engines are 225s (3.682 L) |

Yeah, I saw that too. Looking at the pictures though, they do look like slant 6 engines, not Jeep engines. Still, you'd think they would be more careful with the description.
