i see how it can add up when you start forging the block, getting a stout tranny and rear end, but just for the entery fee, but say you do a truck manifold kit and do all the work yourself i dont see how it could go over 3500

turbo-t67-700
intercooler-300/400
wastegate-tial 46mm-450
bov-tial 50mm-250
lots of 3" 304 stainless tubing-idk how much it is off hand?
42 or 60# injectors and 255lph walbro fuel pump-600
truck manifolds and lq9 heads-300+/-
918 valve springs-150
various tubes and lines/oil feed lines-ill give the benifit of the doubt-500+

so thats 2500+ cost of the tubing

Prefabbed kits are really nice, but you still have to do fuel and tuning stuff.

i believe the gmr kit uses the stock maf and that reads more than ill be able to make with a forged block and all the go fast goodies on a t76, but for the stock shortblock 500/500 is a nice starting point for a 42lbs injectors and a intake fuel pump
