The big question in my mind is can you bolt it up to a 727, or do you need a $5000 transmission??
You just need the correct flexplate and a small block 727/904. ATI and mopar performance make an SFI version of the flexplate.

That's a bargain to run 9's. Wish it were that cheap to make my dart run that quick! Add a zero and you would be more realistic. You're not counting the cost of the Car..... So, $50K+ to run 9's isn't a bargain..... As well said earlier, this offering isn't for everyone...nothing usually is! But for the guy who already has the car it's a pretty good deal of for that power level, along with reliability. Raise your had if you've ever grenaded a high compression, roller cammed 700+ HP motor? The big question in my mind is can you bolt it up to a 727, or do you need a $5000 transmission?? Someone do the math... Iron aftermarket block 350 cfm heads and valvetrain Stroker assembly Turbo or blower to run low compression and "pump gas" EFI Etc... Will you surpass the $15K mark? I'm thinking so. They're also only a pulley, tune and injectors away from near 1000HP

My back tells me a bare block BGE is over 200 lbs Mat , Hate to do this to you, but according to the scale it's the same as the 6.1 and pre Eagle 5.7 Top 2014 BGE, Middle 2008 6.1 Bottom 2005 5.7

I have some short block and long block weight's photos around here somewhere, I'll post them up in the G3 area as soon as I find them.
The Hellcat weight for a complete engine minus accessories should realistically be about 525-550 if the intake is a 110 Lbs( not doubting that number , I just can't confirm it yet)
a 6.1 Long block with timing cover is 405,(I'll double check on that tomorrow.

How many guys on this site do you see walking in and laying down 15000.00 plus the extra 2000.00 to get the wiring. Now that’s just to get it home to take some Facebook pictures. Now we gotta get it in the car and running. Now subtract the guys on here that do their own engine builds and if building an engine with this much money in our pocket would want a clean build sheet to go faster and an aluminum block. I know I would
1970 Duster
Edelbrock headed 408
5.984@112.52
422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph
9.42@138.27
Livin and lovin life one day at a time
