Your engine builder is right, it will be real costly. All Comp engines are expensive. If your builder is going to charge more for a Ford, get a builder who knows Fords.
There are alot of parts out there true.. but power per cube, the FORD is still lacking unless your straping a big blower, or a turbo to it..
