I could be wrong, but $26k for a 383 seems crazy to me. And an STS kit cost more than 4600, unless it's used but why spend 26k on a motor, then throw a used rear mount turbo kit on it. Sounds fishy to me.

Unless the 383 has a DragonSlayer Crank, Billet Rods, Mast Heads, and a Jesel Valetrain I doubt it cost $26,000 to build a 383! I also agree, an STS kit is more than that unless used. I would steer away.

He also put "roll cage" in there and there is nothing but a roll bar in the car.
