Building a Boss

I've been thinking about building a Mustang for a while now. I helped my friend build his 515RWHP N/A GTO, so I guess thats what sparked my interest in building. I wanna get an old beater Mustang for around $1000 (80s-90s body styles). Then I wanna get the new Boss 302 block and build the engine for it. Besides the transmission, engine accessories, suspension, brakes, what other things would I have to do to the car? How much do you guys think it will all cost? (I want it N/A)

RE: Building a Boss

all of these guys are right but that is a good plan, the new boss block is going to be sick and will be able to hold so much power, anyway yea that is a good plan put some nice heads on it a huge cam and a good intake and say hello to 450-500 whp
