GM Performance parts crate engine.. Lets see.. price to dup..
$5500 for LS2 crate engine
$900 FAST intake
$600 COMP cam and pushrods
$2200 AFR 205 heads with upgraded springs
$110 Alternator
$160 Starter
$150 PS Pump
$45 Bracktes
$500 Mezeire Elect Water Pump
$350 ATI SFI-approved balancer
$1800 Stepped 1-7/8 long tube headers
Then you just have to add in a fuel system.. Now you could have done this MUCH cheaper and got the same power. Find a used FAST intake, get the cam and have the LS2 heads worked over ($1200 instead of $2200).. Going with some Hooker 1 3/4 long tubes will only cost you 10hp but will save you a grand.
Also.. you can sell the extra parts off the LS2 for almost a grand. Over a grand if you get aftermarket heads.
To this cost I also added ARP bolts and a LOT of powerpaint.. oh, and $500 for the C5R valvecover and coil racks..
Oh, I did the motor with some help while I snapped pics. I have a great shop in SoCal if you need any LSx work done..
