If you want to talk 'normal' prices, I'd be right around $2,000 for what I have personally spent had I bought the parts for normal prices. I bought a few parts for "used" prices but they were brand new, and I also know quite a few people I guess so I can get heavy discounts on parts. I also bought the car with the exhaust minus the headers, so that was helpful, along with a brand new transmission.

to the wheels I am thinking 335 or so. Maybe a bit more when I get it running perfectly from a few dyno runs. I am thinking of having the heads worked on by a friend though to hopefully squeeze a few more out before the S/C goes on and I get bored. I haven't gotten it dyno tuned yet since I've been busy messing around with my GM crap.

- also, keep in mind you can find some great used parts and keep things well under $2,000 if you shop right. That's what I used to do as long as you know who you're dealing with and what you're buying.
