Looks like the cheap options and putting it all together yourself costs you $17,722.00. I'd call that almost half way to a used R/T Challenger.

If you go the fully optioned route, it adds up to $32,324.00. Thats a lot of coin for only marginal performance gain over what you can do to the stock system for $4000. Of course the Schwartz guys will spout off about their adjustablity and geometry changes and how that all is head and shoulders above stock stuff.
For your 70 Roadrunner, including vehicle purchase, restoration, and rebuild costs, and your classic could easily top $100k using the figures above.
