Those crooks at Engine Swap Supply want north of $600! Good find man.

I'm learning that a lot of these Gen V swap parts are so expensive just out of a lack of support or product offerings so companies are making fat profits on their parts. With a little research, all the challenges that come with Gen V swaps don't seem to be big issues at all. High pressure/PWM fuel supply, 2WD conversion, vacuum pump, A/C compressor mounting, power steering, harness rework.
