If those are the 365hp engs, that's a good deal. Colorado isn't that far Smiley

Not a bad price, but with the comfort of already having fuel injection, I dont think the gains would be worth the effort or cost over simply spending that money on upgrading the 6.2s. Here is an idea for ya Wink

Big block power, small block weight. I think even G might be looking at your stern for a change.

Man I would do some crazy stuff for a single 1650 Wink

But really, if you are serious about possibly upgrading, keep your eyes open for some 502MPIs. A lot of people seem to kick them to the wayside on OSO, but would work awesome for you. Smiley Offer still stands if you want me to do some work on the engines for ya.

I can only imagine the kind of situation you need to be living to even entertain the idea of 1350s. Judging from the MTI delivery from the Texas outlaw challenge... you need to play pro football!

There's a pair of low-time 2009 496's in the OSO classifieds. However they are not the HO's.
