Money is not an object but sure don't wanna go in over about 15 grand or so,Thats motor tranny and rearend but if it goes over so be it,gonna spend the year gatherin parts starting from the rearend and work my way forward.Seems like I have a fetish for a blower to be stickin out of the hood.My mechanic buddy is totaly against hole in the hood but I'm ok with it

Rearend 5k minimum
Turbo 400, a real one could be well over 1000+ converter
Motor-depends + fabbing, cooling system brackets etc etc etc.
Plan on spending 20k if you get out for less youre lucky...if you want to build it right. Plan on a cage to as the car will need some serious stiffening up. See if you can find one thats already done.
Jerkyboy has an incredible 434 sbc C4 (13k) not sure if he sold it or not. No blower but it will keep up with most anythign out there and had a great job done on it.
