Ford does it again. Goes to show how much they care about their racer's and gives them a blue printed race ready engine. I bet they also dyno'd them??? At the time when placing the order for our DP, we expected a race ready engine especially for the price of what was paid and what was actually delivered. Working on a VERY tight budget, we knew what was needed to complete the car and started compiling the necessary parts to finish it once it was confirmed that we were selected to get one. Had we known at the time of ordering it that we needed to build an engine, that may have changed our minds cause an engine build wasn't included in the budget. I'd like to know how many other DP owners are in the same boat as us? To one of those owners that are, we can lend a helping hand to help reduce the cost of your engine build. Parts and machining aside, we decided to offer our labor at no charge including dyno tuning (you'll have to pay for the dyno session, between 250-300) if your using either a FAST or AEM controller. The AEM is prefered because we have dyno'd with it more and have more written tunes for these new Hemi's with it over the FAST. I gotta go. PM me if your interested.
