We've got short-blocks that fit the bill on this one in stock and ready. We'd just have to assemble the long-block to your specs and ship it!

There's the page with some options, but it does not have the AFR's optioned on there. Give us a shout and we can get all the details you're looking at and put together a custom quote for you!

Our 408 shortblock would be $3674.99 with 2618 pistons and hellfire rings. We would have to look for heads, or you could send us some to bolt on if you don't want LS3/L92 stuff.

PM me or give me a call.

Remember the BEST DEAL is not always the cheapest....I am paying a little more but think HKE gives the best value for the buck.. I hope Erik has mine on the stand now....
