wow those are crazy prices. You could build a 700hp 440 for 10k. That's a ton of cash for a SB. Sorry 15-18k for a small block, unless it was a "rule" thing no way I'd drop that kind of cash into one. You could probably do a Hemi for that kind of money. I thought there was a company selling a 500hp BB for 5k not to long ago? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Big-Block-Mopar-...=item5647506ae4 525HP just under 7k http://www.ebay.com/itm/470-CID-Mopar-st...=item3cc294d4f8 600HP under $6000 Why on earth would anybody buy any of those units form MP?
Quality = $$$$$ look at those motors you listed not real high quality parts doing a quick look I seen they had cheapo KB hyper pistons a stock used crank and rods stock block I mean nothing special
now look at my quality race motor
1- 4 bolt X-block = 1800.00 1- new challies crank = 990.00 1- set custom diamond pistons = 1000.00 1- comp custom solid roller = 300.00 1- set crane solid roller lifters = 550.00 1- set scat h beam rods = 350.00 1- set CNC indybrock heads with Ferria valves,pac springs, pac titanium retainers = 3500.00 1- set harland sharp rockers = 700.00 1- billet roller chain and gears = 100.00 1- ATI dampner = 400.00 1- set ARP head studs = 150.00 1- set ARP main studs = 75.00 1- used M1 intake ported = 175.00 1- set Cometics = 150.00 1- oil pump = 50.00 1- used milodon pan/ new pick up = 150.00 1- new timing cover = 150.00 1- set manton push rods = 125.00 1- machine shop bill = 1100.00 ----------------- total 11,715
and that does not include the rest of the gaskets,or the valve covers,carb,distributor,plugs wires ect ect
but I had a motor making well over 600 hp that was very reliable always ran the number and had less than 3% leakdown after 150 passes and the new owner is still beating on it and as long as he takes care of it it will last a long time.
but any of those BB's will run just as long and make more HP...with cheap pistons, stock re-used cranks and all. Even w/ new parts you can do it for way under 10k and have much more motor. That is a retail price. Nothing more.
