i hate to break it to you but that combo is WAY more that 3500.00
the HP tuners program alone is 600.00 add up all that stainless tubing, cam, VS the waste gate and Blow off are 700.00, injectors 300.00 there is 1600 in 3 items, and tuning time it will easily be over 6 K
unless your hot rod magazine and people are just giving you stuff.

it is just not realistic in the real world, and ppl come in thinking i got 3500 to spend and it endes up costing 2x that. it is just reality.
it cost me 5k to rebuild my ls2. and i did all the work???? and get good pricing on parts

Just bought one from Pace Performance. Got everything and it's all GM. Front drive and A/C, starter, power steering all wiring and controller with the DBW gas pedal even a belt. Muscle car oil pan from GM for $150 bucks. Super complete kit. Oh yea a two year 50,000 mile warranty. talk to Mark at the order desk he was a huge help. Had it in a week.

What was your final investment to Pace? I have been looking at there 525 hp setup. Does that setup have upgraded valve springs?

Check out Pace's web page all parts and combo's are priced and have a description. shop aeround and make a list and contact the order desk to make your deal. ( I delt with Mark and he was a big help) Everything is all GM parts. Motor was $7,500 and the wire harness and control $1,100. You can find everything there, oil pan , starter whatever you need. Keep in mind this is all new stuff and is ready to rock.

Well for what the price its a good deal. I felt like being different, so I'm almost done building a LS1 that I hope will Dyno at 640-674hp. I will have about $8,700 into it and it will be carb'd with a Holley control unit and thats not including the front drive so turn key I'm at around $10,400.
