Ick that aint cheep! But its around what I thought it would be, and is doable some day... still need the car first though. Is it possible to pass emissions with the swap providing you have cats?

Good luck getting that FAST intake to fit. Completely different port design. AND.. the L76 flows better than a ported fast.

The good thing though, is you can sell your fast and everything that goes with it... buy the L76, and get very close to paying for both bare heads

soo... 7000-8000 total.

Thats YOU putting it in

and removing your old motor.

This really isn't bad though. Compare Katech's engines which sell for $23,000, just for the engine. LPE is up there in price too.

Now granted, these guys rock and have unequalled reputation. But $8k for us smaller budget guys is very attractive. $8k is doable - $23k is not.

Livernois Motorsports sells the heads with Comp 918 springs and Manley Valves for $1,395.00 and I think they sell the manifold for around $300. They also sell CNC ported L92's for $1,795.00.
