So honestly speaking what would you expect to pay for this through top end engine builders with a year warranty? Im making the build public on the website and I know what Schmidt, Teague, Rherr & Morrisson etc charge...I want to see what the market thinks is fair... Good thing with me running this department, I want the retail industry to chime in and here what you all say in where pricing stands....Here are the main points....


Dart Big M 9.8 Block
Dart Pro1 Alum Yellow Chromite 345cc Heads
Dart Single Plane Intake
4340 Forged Steel Rotating Assembly
JE Forged Pistons
Comp Cams Camshaft & Retro Roller Kit
Moroso Marine Pan and Pickup
Holley Marine 4150 850CFM Carb
Holley Marine Grade Fuel Pump
MSD Pro Billet Marine Dist & Wires
MSD Marine Box with Rev Limiter
ARP Bolts
Dyno Tested and Tuned

Pretty much complete....Here is a pic of the build we did, customers color scheme....I know there are a few small changes I would make ie; ATI Dampner and Electric Fuel Pump. Let me know what you think...

as pictured above without the plumbing, pulley system, waterpump, manifolds.

15k would be about close

12-15k would be in the ball park as it sits.

Not that I would buy it for that
