Who sells 408s? I am looking for a forged 408 short block - I'd love to go TSP but am having difficulties getting in touch w/them since I need to make a decision fairly quickly. I am looking for a price very comparable to what they are offering and in stock. Any help greatly appreciated!

Jon said he's been in contact with you already, but:
We have at least eight 402ci/408ci/418ci shortblocks currently in stock and ready to ship or be picked up, and another probably 10-12 being currently built at our machine shop so there are plenty of shortblock options if we don't already have what your looking for in stock.
If your local, we have been known to meet customers on the weekends to pickup their engine selections.

I also have a 12cc piston motor on the shelf and ready to go now. I know we were discussing a -10 cc piston for your motor, so you will loose a bit of compression. I can have it headed to you as early as monday! 
You will still be a bit over 11:1 compression!

OWNED by TRT! You shoulda had a middle man (insert Al Banker voice over here)
Exactly... he buys engines from Erik all the time. He picks them up all the time. I doubt you can get a price on an HKE Motor for what Billy can get it for

....and its Al Boenker bitch.... His son has had several LSX cars quicker than you'll ever go, and probably a few diesels also. Where is this magical 1,000 horsepower stroker of your's anyways? You've done nothing but talk three tons of **** for the last two months and you're still not running.
