If turner doesn't have any SAI heads (but I'll bet they do, I've noticed that most NAS parts are available in the UK) you could probably send them a set to use to build your engine. Or order a short block and get some rebuilt heads from Will to put on it.

Turner replied to my email inquiry almost immediately. Redacted reply below, which really just confirms the info on their online store, an option I have no problem with other than the ARP studs question. Net- no go on the SAI heads or ARP studs. I'm gonna do the short block and source the reman heads in USA (thanks for the tip JAFLR and other options welcome). Prolly use ARP studs too.

Can someone confirm the grand total it would cost to get a 4.6 complete unit shipped to New Hampshire? Core charge included? The above prices sound way to good to be true. If the US dollar went back up then I can see how it would be so cheap but I doubt it. But I have been eyeballing Turner for awhile now.

$5200 WITH A CAM AND A FRONT COVER. but you also have a sai heads I assume so you would be buying a short block cam and from cover and have the head done locally so you would be around $4500. u do the shipping

not a smokin deal on a 250hp pushrod engine, but definitely a square deal relative to other disco options. SAI is a small drawback (who is Will btw?).

I'm confused though because you have 2 different price tags. I think they offer a updated cam shaft and optional front cover which I would want. The whole assembly or as much of it as possible. Heads included. Locally I could have my current heads machined for roughly $300 but if Im going to buy a new engine from Turner might as well get their heads with it. Some people above were saying the cost of shipping was roughly $500 across the pond. That seems a little low. What about the core charge and your old engine? Do they provide you with a crate and everything to ship out your old engine or do you have to pay out of pocket to get your old engine shipped to them?
