I went to franks shop back in October it's at his house in his garage. I will pay the extra after seeing the job he did on the Ahu for my friends eurovan.

He's a beast.. Word has it his heads are the quietest out there. Mine needed to have two lifter bores machined a couple valves replaced and a whole new lifter set and cam. The cam was $300 for the stage 2.

He does ok work from what I have seen, but I believe the machinist I use does better, cheaper, and closer. I think that he is WAY overpriced for what he does. I have about the same in my oversize valve head as you do your back to stock head for example.

$3K in parts without trying in my professional opinion.
$4K ain't bad for the package if someone can transport it economically.
Be patient and consider making it run.

Thanks! I can make it run with a $20 fitting for the return line, and a woodruff key for the pump. If it were a deal breaker I would but I have no time.. Speaking of new parts... the trucks front end has over $1k in it alone.. coils, extenders,strut caps (raised), new rack, inner/outer tie rods, redline bearings and new hubs, rotors, SS brake lines..

My thing is I can finish it and make it run/drive.. but not the way I would like to.. I want to do it the right way, and I dont have the time or the money.. Apparently I'm not suited for complete builds.. being I'm too anal for my wallet. I want it to be perfect and I just cant afford it right now..

If it comes down to it.. I'll keep it, store it in a unit somewhere for a few years, and come back to it with a few thousand to spend. But I hate it sitting there getting weathered. And storage fees are $$. So.. I sell it. I dont have a garage to keep it in or it would be that easy.

I have a love for jet skis that out weighs my truck, and I just dumped a bunch of money into my stand up. Doing a 750 motor swap from the 550, and plan on having it done for the warm weather.
