We have had good expieriance's so far with Rhino. I think its Rhinoengines.com, they sell the complete long blosk for around 2400.oo which includes shipping to your door and the pick-up of your core. You may want to tell them about the broken block though because this may affect the price. You can also try Karkraft.com and see what they have this month, good luck.

1500 for a Cobra Motor? The cheapest on ebay are around $3500. You COULD GET A MARK VIII engine from 96-98 which have 280 HP stock instead of a Cobra Engine. They are basically the same except the cams and intake manifold. They go for around 1200 shipped on ebay

Dillard, if your at all interested in both keeping the budget down, keeping the install really easy, and increasing peformance I would recommend looking at a 99-04 GT engine. This is what is called a "PI" or "power improved" engine. Your current engine is a "NPI" or non power improved, with poor (er) flowing heads/cams and intake.

The 99-04 GT engine will virtually drop right in, make lots more power/better powerband than your stocker, and shouldn't break the bank either.
