    Well it's been quite a while since I've posted. I blew my stock 207 back in February and ended up swapping in a V7 ej207. Before I put the v7 in I installed ARP headstuds and hand lapped the valves. Spent about a month getting the valves lashed right due to ordering the wrong buckets. But I've had it running for about 5 months now.

    Here are some pics

    I built it in my 3rd fl dorm room, taking it down the stairs as a longblock was fun...

    I don't know their current price but about 7 years ago they were around 4000 in dollars. Some more some less.

    I was able to pick mine up for about $1000 with no accessories and unknown mileage. They typically sell for about $2000 though.
