actually mine is around that
but then i decided to get bigger cams that arent drop in items..
and the price of mine is a little more aswell since im not using an N1 pump that they 1st quoted.
but the initial price im very sure was around 7grand
but the cost of the motor since then (since ive decided to add things to the original quote) is probably around the 10-11 grand mark now :/

well if they're good enough for shane they're good enough for us
to be honest though wasnt aware that $7k was a good price for an engine?
but as I said, there might be somethings that you may want to add...and this will make the price go up (depending on the motor aswell)

pretty sure it included the N1 pump and crank collar.........so in theory this "maybe safe", but even then too many people have had problems with it to be a coincidence. for insurance though might aswell go another japanese pump or do what I'm doing..
from memory i was looking for a sump at one stage, so probably not
but hey, just ask them if it includes a sump and it just might
i will post my stuff up when its all built and once ive bought the new turbo (thats if i do get it )
no good just posting a picture of a reconditioned 26 head and glide just sitting around
and its going to be a while still, had a chat to mick at ovaboost and seeing as I now dont have an ECU im looking at motec once again

what did the 18grand include out of curiosity?....dry sump setup? (you'd hope so if it was just the head/bottom end lol)
thats a whole motor including bolt-ons i hope?
