Was it run on a dyno? I'd be interested in what horsepower and torque it made..

Are you using hydraulic lifters or changing them to the Ford lifters and which oil pump you using for the V12 ??

What kind of hp/tork does an engine like that put out?
and what does it weigh?

Ball park $25,000-30,000

Heads are $2,500 or $3,800 alone

Are there any mods to beef up the bottom end? Those old V12 engines can use all the help they can get down there.

Can make steel main caps, but rods are the issue. These engines are not for land speed records, it is more looks.
