5500 isnt tooooo far off the price of a procharger kit from bob at EPP, youd need a bigger fuel pump and injectors too though , and you should pin the crank too in my opinion. Your looking at around 7-7500 bare minimum with misc stuff you will end up needing that you wont expect.

i saw an episode on spike when they were talking about the procharger, lol im still used to the import price range, so would 4gs be enough just to build the engine? id rather be safe than sorry if im spending over 3000

New forged shortblock $2900
Stock 6.0L 72cc Heads $350
Valvetrain $350
Procharger kit $6000
Tuning $500
Fuel System using stock lines $1000
Miscellaneous $1000 easy
That should get you well into the region of breaking everything else
Drivetrain: $$$$$
it never ends lol
