I been apart a few times and passed, I know I feel ok about my car, and "ok" is good enough for me.
Easy I have already exceeded 20K and I'm not paying anyone to build it. I'm paying for top quality machine work, completed heads and a carb but other than that I'm doing all the work myself. I built a faster super-gas motor based on the same engine for 1/2 the money. If you want to maximize hp on a stocker and run closer to the top the cost go way up.
