Ok all, wanting to see if theres a good short block out there or a whole engine for a decent price.
anyone have one or know of one and a price?
or if anyone would be interested and had an engine in good condition I may be willing to trade a project i never got around too. have a fiero with a v8 kit, almost everything except the v8 and radiator.

I bet Al still has one or two. He still had the rolled SVT with the whole drivetrain in it when I went to pick up some seats from him a little before Christmas.

kinda new to the board. who's al?

His name's Al Ficker. He's a semi-retired guy in Hastings who parts and rebuilds totaled foci. You can reach him on his cell phone at 651-216-0899. He's a good guy and has a load of parts. When I bought a Zetec from him he offered to deliver it to my house in St Paul, so he may be able to come to you if you have trouble getting to Hastings to pick it up.

Thanks,
This has got me in a tight situation with all i'm trying to get done with work and coordinating focusfest. Didn't plan on this happening at all...lol
Hopefully he has one. I'll give him a call in a day or so.

He has one... still set up to be 'driveable'....

Its a nice motor setup, low miles too.

Buy it, so then he will take my brakes off the car for me (he's holding out on taking them off until the motor is sold, so the car will be driveable until that point)

I have a rolled 2004 Svt that has 37,000 miles on it. It is still lot driveable, just the interior and airbags have been removed. I would be willing to sell the engine seperatly, but prefer to sell the remainder as a package to someone looking to do a complete swap. GIVE me a call on my cell 651-216-0899. Thanks, Al Ficker.

Hi Al,

I've heard alot about you. I haven't bought anything from you, but I'm sure that will change.

With a little work anything can be done. Got a welder?
