So im pricing parts to piece together a BBC and im realizing that crate motors a good value. Im now thinking about a Merlin 509 from Summit for $7500. Sounds like a really good deal and there is no way one could buy the parts and build it for that price. Whats everyones thoughts on a crate motor. This came off of HTP's web sight. Looks pretty trick.
