Default Wtb crazy motor setup

I am in the market for a new motor or setup. Something really nice and able to eventually be pushed really hard. Must be forged obviously. Preferably a long block but can deal with short block.

Ideas would be mostly:
440 ci with chances for n2o
408 ci ready for 88mm or F1.

Let me know what you have and a price, shipped to 20124 or met somewhat close

wasn't putting that out there because then people are immediately going to jump to my max dollar. I've looked at a lot of nice builds out there and most of them are really close to my range just need a good deal from someone
