Na
the crate motor is going to be $3,250 installed
If I go sc I would have to rebuild the tranny also costing more money so I will just start saving again and do those upgrades later

Crappy luck man, but hey it sure looks good on the tow truck haha.

3k for a n'a motor is ALOT. But I guess.

That's awful Keith, but like you said at least nobody was hurt. Best of luck to you getting it back on the road asap.

IDK if you already sourced your crate engine or what-not. But ZZP sells crate engines that they upgrade as well.

ZZ Performance

Forge some of those internals so it doesn't happen again

I'm soooo sorry to here Keith - glad everyone is OK. Same thing happened to my brand new 05 Mustang with only 1200 miles on it and I was only going 25mph. They also say that 4.0L Ford engine was bulletproof also.
