im not exatally sure how much i spent its been a while lol. im pretty sure it was 1700-1900 hundred. that was with the upgraded valve springs, pushrods, oil pump, the installation fee and a tune. if you have the time and tools to do it i would recommed doing it yourself. you will save yourself some money and know that it is done right and all the bolts are in and tight.
