We list the engine platform a part is built for. That is not year-and-trim application data, so it does not confirm a fit on your specific vehicle.

  • Install quoted on request. We fit parts in-house in Huntington Beach, but we do not publish a labor figure for this item — we would rather quote your car than guess. Call (714) 202-7886 or pick Install at HRC and add your vehicle details, and we will come back with the labor.

How the price is made up

Parts at our own retail: $4,440.24 · assembly 12 hours at $125/hr: $1,500.00 · total $5,945.00. The hours are our estimate for a build of this scope and are confirmed with you in writing before work starts; everything above traces to a part number you can price yourself.

Notes on this platform

  • The factory crankshaft stays. Ford's 7.3L crank is forged steel and is a genuinely good part; it is retained on these builds rather than replaced as a default upsell. A Callies billet crank is available when the target calls for it and is quoted separately.
  • Factory cylinder heads on the base long block. CNC-ported heads (M-6049-SD73P / M-6050-SD73P) are the common upgrade and are quoted on top.
  • Block prep to the design spec for your combination. Machine work is carried out by our partner machine shop here in California; assembly is on our own bench in Huntington Beach.
