383 ?
A budget 383 will run you around $5000+ in just the motor, not to mention the mods needed to use it and put it to the ground. I've been building since feb'11. And there is no "kit" there may be rotating assembly "kits" but that Is just the tip of the iceberg ..

I did some research on yellowbullet and found that the dragonslayer and magnum cranks are made from the same base forging, but the magnum has extra lightening and hand knife edging like you said.
