I'm about to repower from carbed 454's to the MPI 8.1's. Does anyone have any performance numbers on these engines, and what I can expect to pay?. I've seen some of the prices online, but was looking for some real world numbers. Any information will be greatly appreciated. |

Ernie,
I am about to do the same thing. I have dug and turned over every rock out there, and the best deal for the Captains Choice 8.1 is about 12k without gear. I found a pair in FTL with Hurth 630A for about 14.5. Dont think it is going to get any better. |
