In the neighborhood of 15g give or take. I've seen them at shows and in ads for 15 to 18 g. That's new price tho. Used .. even freshened up would be quite a bit less. At least it would be if i had to write the check. I just about bought one 2-3 years ago for 6g, but then decided to not take a chance on someone else's used engine.

thanks for the input. looks like a nice ride your putting together in your picture.

Thanks, sounds like we have similar plans for power?
