a real collector's item, especially the #1 motor. that makes it extremely rare

i added it to my watch list

i looked into buying one, but i realized that for the money, the performance wasn't there

you can build a MUCH better engine for what it would cost to buy one of those

The 95 R motors were built in canada, it never left there. Why is it fishy b/c he only has 10 feedbacks?

5.0/302 and 351 Windsors are all in the same engine family and were built in Windsor, Canada. That's where they got the name.

Any guesses where the 351 Clevelands were made?

How were those things made anyways? Were they just made of stock 351 internals and regular GT40 heads, or were there any other goodies packed into those things?

If I had the money laying around collecting dust, I'd get it and put it on a stand in my living room.

Looks like it MAY come with the stand that it's been on for the last 12 years. You could prolly get them to "throw it in", along with the spec chart.
