Your right, great motor for a 442, but not for the motorhome. Built for a different application.

Probably be a great motor for a car & $8K is a good deal, Mondello's biggie is $12K. When you talk about those motors you forget $. It's that way really about any performance purpose built motor.If you find one cheap, be very afraid. Forget the down and dirty $4k motors, just ain't hapnen. Out machine work and parts is more than that. Truly with a motor, you get what you pay for, no way around it. Our roller cam motors are $6K and you cannot do better. Joe told me I have Campaign ideas on a beer budget! I resemble that remark and appreciate the recognition!
