Default Cost of a healthy 402/408 & Spray Setup?

I have heard the turbo guys makin BIG power with about 20-25k they are spending. If I do a 402/408 n/a making 525-550rwhp and then spraying a 150 shot on top of that, what kind of money would we be talking?

Could easily be more as well.

motor only cost? or complete setup?

fuel system
tranny (auto or manual needs some work.. clutch, convertor etc)
rearend
suspension
nitrous setup
injectors
intake
TB
Headers/exhaust
etc

Most 408s with say an Eagle crank/Hbeams are around 3800 or so + core, some less...
then add in lifters/cam/pushrods/rockers/heads/and so on
I'd say for a complete longblock, look to spend around 6800 or so, with nice heads.

It all depends on the parts you use, and how you go about it...
