Has anyone noticed on Indy's website that they have a 470 shortblock for $2,500?

Is this for real??

If so, has anyone bought one?

What do ya think? Is it worth calling them about?

Its a stock Block. Pretty good deal though. IMO Eagle stuff is pretty good stuff. Just needs check like every other part that goes into any engine.

I agree with Quick
You might as well get a bigger stroker from
the Source, cause you have to go threw it all
anyways.

i sent a brand new eagle crank & a brand new source crank to a metalurlogist for anaylist. he told me to use the source crank as the eagle was more brittle & would break first. was interesting info & not what i thought he would say, but money well spent.
