    Thanks... color not necessarily an issue as I can paint... location on the other hand may be... no idea what shipping would cost to get them out here let alone packing them up in the first place.

    Yea I figured that getting them out to ya would be the biggest issue. Funny thing though is he was JUST talking about trying to find someone to buy them from him.

    Si. I blew up the sc 3.4 .....twice (didnt catch the bad injector when we rebuilt). The block was not salvageable the 2nd time so 4.0 was the solution. I did a couple drag races with a v8 ranger in a dry lake bed and we're pretty comparable on the acceleration and wasnt too far off on top speed......sure he had 39s+3 speed and im on 35s, but those are just semantics.

    Yes. More resistance to tearing and better articulation.
