The availability is real and you can place an order until the 28th. Will call around to find a better price.

You should make sure they are looking up the part number that is listed above.
I would think it should be a bit lower.

~$7k range is right, but most dealers should sell for less if they are smart. Its only profit, they stand to lose nothing.
If you only have crappy dealers near you that stinks

Anyone in south Florida that wants one I think we are asking ~$5500 for any model, I'd have to verify with my parts guy though. Just remember there is an expected 90 day lead time, and purchases must be paid for in advance, cash. No dealer is likely to order on good faith on these unless they were ordering one to begin with (Miami, S. Cal, etc dealers).

For what it is worth, even at full price it is a ridiculous deal though. You couldn't build it for anywhere near that. You'll break 10k before you even get off the major components.

Vero Beach. Just come in with a wad of cash if you want to order; I will confirm the numbers tomorrow. NO checks. NO paypal. And I may be speaking out of turn on this one, but NO credit cards. Too many scum bags that would scam their way to a free engine ruin it for the legit people.
No shipping.

Did anyone here buy one of these? I tried to but by the time Russell got back with me it was the last day to buy and not enough notice. Anyone want to sell theirs or anyone know who to order one through now?

So they are selling complete long blocks? Thats a great deal for anyone who doesn't trust a built motor.

Tried to order another one last week. IX's are out all together. You can still order X's though. Still about 3 month lead time. Retail dropped about $2000 on them too, so I'm guessing they didn't sell as many as last time.
