the ford GT dry sump block is (alloy with dry sump setup) $2500
rotating assembly from MMR rated at 2500hp $4000
i bourght a pair of complete genuine ford GT heads for the engine i'm building for $2000
if u allow the same amount of money again maybe a little more for the rest of the bits i'm sure u could get an engine producing the power this GT is running, i'm allowing $15-20k for my engine, but i'm going supercharger not twin turbo, as said, i have the heads already, and also i have the ford GT inlet that take 16 injectors, the 16 injector GT inlet is only $300 delivered and is a work of art.
the inlet kit.
my $2000 heads

You bet your arse they can be tuned.
1500hp from a stock block. Although that GT will have the 32v heads like yours.
Mines using the 3v head. Still allot of power can be achieved with bolt on parts.
Just bought a Roush charger kit for mine out of the states for under $1k. Thats gonna go near 500hp without going near a rolling road

Stiegmeier' "Snakebite" charger that could go near 1000hp with a forged bottom end and some trick bits.
That's all just weekend warrior stuff!
What power are you looking for out of that Stang unit?
