rebuilding a 351 windsor

i was wondering how much it would cost to get my 351 Windsor rebuilt and or how much would a crate motor run me.

That's a tough question to answer, with so many variables.  A rebuild could be less ...or more...depending on what type of rebuild you want, how many components are going to be reused, condition of your engine, etc.  The labor rate in your area is unknown also.

You may want to surf for crate prices ...just google "Crate 351"   Then search for engine rebuilders in your area and have a conversation with them.

Good Luck

They told me that I could have a tranny shop do it and it wouldn't void it. The tranny shop would be cheaper. I feel like if you find one in a JY, it's either gone or on its way there seeing as it's in a JY. Also, its harder to find a manual from the JYs that I have been in. When mine goes, I believe I will be going the ford route (then have a transmission shop install it). Its more expensive, but the piece of mind is worth it IMHO."

My monster transmission/converter/cooler ended up being right at $2000 shipped. That also included freight to return the core and converter. If you live outside of Florida it might be a touch less since I had to pay sales tax.

Im pretty pleased with it so far, but I only have 200 miles on it. I will reserve judgement till I get 50,000 miles on it. But so far, so good. I got the heavy duty version they sell. They wont sell you the stock one if you have 31" or larger tires..."

Core Deposit: $1,000.00   The quote was a year ago, so the price may have gone up (of course) - I didn't buy a transmission (yet). I seem to remember when I talked to my local dealer about installing it, they wanted about $1100 If you Google the part number, there is one at a Texas dealer cheaper than the above quote,
