I lurk over on the Moparts gen 3 area because believe it or not I am open minded and enjoy reading and studying before I leap. As for costs I have 2800.00 in my mega block ready to assemble, 2200.00 in my rotating assembly, and under 1200.00 in my 440-1 heads with Harlan Sharp rockers with upgraded 2.250 valves (I will probably go with a set of T&D rockers if valve to piston permit). Indy intake was in a package deal and 500.00 in the alcohol toilet if I go that way. It adds up but still what I consider budget build as I shy away from some of the "ragazine" tricks that drive up costs. But like I said my eyes and ears are open while you guys get a hints figured out. I can only hope that is a misprint on what a gen 3 guy said lifters cost in that one post over there.
