dont forget about a better rear end....

you cant really put a price on a project, there always a work in progress, but always for the better, thats why each car is unique in its own way.

Bud, YOU NEED TO SPEND A LOT OF TIME on here. You have a LOT of SEARCHING and READING to do. NO ONE wants to sit on here and answer you endless list of questions. You are too vague in what you are asking...."400-500HP" There is a BIG-couple grand-difference in cost between 400 and 500 hp engines.
My point, I have been on sites like this since I was 17, and I will be 24 in a month-1/2. Its taken 7 years to learn what I know and u r wanting guys like me to just break down and tell you all the details of an ENTIRE build-up.
There IS an answer to pretty much all of your questions on these forums, but you have to SEARCH. Pricing on parts......Call 18003454545 and get a JEGS catalog or call 18002303030 and get a Summit catalog.
