Is it possible to build it from scrap ? I gonna ordering a used 4AG (AE101) engine , and start a rebuild project on it ...Hope that anyone can surpport me a with a little info and experince to help me out ...thank you :banghead:

To build the formula atlantic engine part by part is roughly $11,000. You can buy a knock-off version (practically same specs) for around $10,000. The other thing is that these engines do not last very long, and for a daily driver would be a terrible idea.

daily driver?!? I didn't see anything in his post about a daily driver, but yes, it would be a horrible daily driver.

Uh, I don't think so Tim....

it is a RACE car engine for a reason, the car weighs around 1200 lbs, and can make use of the 240hp high rpm engine. a light street car, roughly double that weight loses the advantage that the engine was designed for.

it would be fun in a stripped out light street type car, but nothing that would be on the street as a daily.
