Default 427 stroker Cost?

I`m thinking of going with a 427 stroker. I already have MTI S2 heads that can be worked over for the extra cubes. As you can see I have FLP`s, and everything else for the motor already on mine. How much do you think it would run me installed and tuned. I`m really getting the itch. My car is really feeling slow to me now, so I feel the need for more speed
Thanks!

I would say around 9 grand for a built short block, 700 to rework the heads with new springs and intake valves, plus a tranny build up. Price will vary with intake, injectors and headers. I would guess around 13-14k to get it done with an ls6 intake.

I was hoping something like that. I just had Century rebuild tranny, want vig to restall my conv to a 3600. I have ls6 intake and all. Just need shortblock, heads modded and install and tune. MTI has done all my work from the get-go. really thinking of theres. Once she is broke in I would put the spray back on!!! Plan on using everything I have on my motor for bolt-ons to help with the cost! See Sig!!

APE has a 427 longblock listed in the Sponsers GP section for $12,600 and they seem to build some good motors.
