Save money maybe....

Why not try and get some barely used parts for cheap? If he wanted the wheels brand new and had the dough, more power to him.

I dont think you need to be the guy giving out financial tips buddy.

its not about money. intake/exhaust and cylinder to cylinder each pushrod and lifter will be warn differently. lets say you buy a used H/C/I and the pushrods and lifters. the previous owner just pulls everything out and puts then in a zip lock bag with out marking anything. ok now your screwed bc you dont know where they go and your car is making funny noises.
