Title: Ebay Marine 454
Post by: 2savage4you on September 15, 2008, 03:52:09 PM

Anybody ever buy one of these.... Wow a five year warranty with cast pistons????

It must be for a larger boat that does not turn high rpm's ???

Those peanut port heads look rediculous!!

$750 for a core?? They are out of their minds! I can go to ecology and pull one for $100

Yeah, he said the shortblock is $1195

I can rebuild mine for half that , it just needs rings and bearings if i was to use the cast pistons ???
