Well the motors are out of the boat, a 1996 32 Sunsation Dominator, as of today. I have 502 blocks with 454 330 parts on them. This is what my engine builder wants to do;
New Crank, heads, pistons, rods, rings, bearings, intake manifolds, lifters, cam, .030 over, balance new assembly. Plus some other misc parts. Total cost 7800 per motor. Basically make these stock 502 motors.
I have a possible pair of 496 ho motors lined up for $17000, 30 hours out of 2001 demo boat. Add cost of removing and replacing motors.
Thought of getting a set up 454 330's and dropping those in. Cheap ones.
What's the opinions out there? Decisions, decisions...
