I have read about what it takes to make a Taurus 3 liter work. How much work, ie prep, is it to make the LS run in a Tour?

Also depends if you do the work or have it done by others. u can get a prep engine from the Sho Shop for $1499 and do it all yourself, but if you need someone else help, they u might be shelling out a few bucks.

Really? I didn't know they were selling LS long blocks now...

$1499 is a killer price!!! :p

Even if it were true I'd still skip it before having to deal with their crappy service/quality though...

I thought I noticed the long block option the other day on SHO site. That's pretty killer then for $1499.

The $1499 is for SHO Shop's regular 3L, not the LS 3L. Or at least that is according to their website. And we all know how they are always updating their website :rolleyes:
