It's only a starting bid - doesn't mean it'll finish at that. And at the end of the day, it's a 10 year old Falcon engine with a few hundy clicks on it.

Alot of wreckers sell these with warranty and supposed low mileage a fair way under $500.

I think that you can just grind the front fins off the AU sump to make it fit.

not into an EF you need to cut off a bit of the front and weld it back on, on an angle to clear the K frame
