Kirk,
Are you sure the motor mounts are different?
I'm curious as well as I am building two MkIV tall decks to replace my 496HOs and am under the impression that the pad type mounts are the same 3 bolt pattern.

(can't wait to get those pretty Sport Tubes in there ;o))

Keep the 496
Not trying to bang my own drum here, but for about $9K installed by you the 496 with a Raylar 103 kit will run away from a 500EFI. Add a set of Dana header exhausts for about $2500 and at 570HP the 496 will be a much better financial and power investment. Just my obviously biased opinion, but most guys know I am a straight shooter.
Best Regards,
Ray @ Raylar
