A new rotating assembly with forged crank, new rods, and matching pistons/rings will cost you $1,800 + $200 to balance it. Add in a new camshaft $400, new oil pump $150, new timing set $100, and a new main stud set $200, pan gaskets $180. That will be enough to bolt together a forged, stroked, short block, assuming you don't need any machine work done.

A 408 stroker short block assembled will run you about 4500.
