MikeRL411 Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 If you go to the JCWhitney web site and enter the 1600 roadster and search for engine products you will come across a Roush V8 conversion. Unfortunately it is a $10,000 option. A terrific engine, but! Much better things to do with all that money. Found this while searching for a valve cover. The listed one just wasn't right and I was curious as to just which engine it fit. Quote Link to comment
kiznook Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 link? what does it include? It might seem far out of reach, but if it is a complete setup thats not a bad deal Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Let's hope it's an all-alloy block. Those 4.6 liter Ford V8s are heavy... Quote Link to comment

MikeRL411 Posted June 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Roush engines are typically his home brew all aluminum versions of Ford V8s. Too much $$$$ for my interest, but go for it if performance exceeds financial considerations. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Adds only 75hp? hmmm that's a bit more than the normal dollar to hp conversion :P Quote Link to comment
