Thanks, I might have bought a 4.6 aluminum! A mind is a terrible thing to waste, especially your own!
How about one of the 5.4 blocks they have at www.karkraft.com Then I could add the forged parts that you referrenced me to(THANKS!) Not sure if stock bore pistons are available there but saving 2lbs of rotating weight is cool. I'd like to get this started with a block, possibly a motor from a yard depending on the cost.

I'll price out a running motor locally and then post that here to get opinions on what is the best way to go. It seems that the crank and front cover are the items I really neeed from a donor motor, right?
