Only makes sense for a shop, say a resto or rod & custom shop, where they'd need to whip an engine in/out, by hand, numerous times for a bunch of cars and skip the engine hoist/chain issues.

Is anyone a little confused why the FE block and the FE block with heads costs the same?

Good points on both guys. ;D If your were going to "invest" in one of those, it would be a no-brainer to get the one w/heads for same price.
