It hit me that 4AGE blocks & heads (especially 16vs, and especially late ones) are sought after for various vintage classes - I even heard of a local rally driver ordering a CNC'd 4AGE 16v replica long block, which is going to cost him more than most people around here make in a year. Do you think that the original items could approach or even exceed the cost of CNC'd replicas or will people just quit trying to work with these engines first?
I've never heard of this theoretical situation happening with any other engine before, so maybe 4AGE values are peaking right now and value will later settle to a fairly high, but lower than present value as "racing demand" drops and they are relegated mainly to museum pieces with historical value, like Ford/Cosworth BD-series engines.
