All reasons why some of us build on the Cleveland foundation instead...which can be taken all the way out to about 466 ci or so..

I am very impressed with some of the numbers I've seen more recently, and in this thread, for 408W builds though. Way better than my decade old 408C build. I'm going to rectify that soon, though.

Hey BMC--not every tom, dick, or harry as a secret stash of 400m blocks to work with! You know i've been around cars/trks and especially fords for over 30 years and can count on both hands the number of factory equipped 400m motored vehicles i've encountered during this time. Most be a northern thing with all those motors?;)

Every time you say 400 M , a kitten dies.

For the kind of coin you're dropping, I would consider a 700hp supercharged coyote engine. Fuel injected, streetable, wicked coolness factor.

that's a $25k set up turn key. The 600 hp versions start at $19k with a lot of needed extras.

This motor with fuel injection at my door ready to install will be under $15k. with just under 600/600

Yea, but its not as cool. You already have a number of people on here with the same or similar set up and who knows how many that don't frequent this site or chime in. I bet nobody has the SC Coyote yet.
