Those crate engines sure are a great deal. Back in the 90s you had to get an aftermarket block, heads, crank, pistons, and rods for four that (not adjusted for inflation) to even consider reliably making over 400hp on anything. I remember saving money for an A4 Ford block sold by SVE. Never got it cause it was about $2k and came bare and unfinished.

Nowadays, an LS crate engine and a smallish turbo can get you 600 wheel horsepower on pump gas.

Crate engines are nothing new but are any of those the engine for the GT40?
