Jim K shows a 455 for $3,200. That's a start. Add in enough for the "while we're at it..." factor and you should be well under $10,000! I don't know what Jim B gets for his Jasper engines.

I have heard as high as 10,000. Average around 5 to 6 thousand.

Joe Mondello has his 455 engine for $7999.00. Probably worth it if he does everything he says, and I think he does.
