Mine is costing way too much. Had I known it would be this expensive i would not have done it.
Engine and trans $2,200
Driveline $36
PA RACING K MEMBER $400
Jet hot headers $580
MSD wires $80
NGK Plugs $56
Shift plate $75
Guage cluster $50
mufflex Y pipe $250
Energy susp. Poly motor mounts $50
Install $1800
Still deciding wheather to go with a volant cai or back to a lid setup. Cost about another $200-$275
So im about just under $6k on my engine swap. But most of the stuff I bought wasnt really required for the swap. And it seems like I forgot to list something? So IM sure its a little more than that. But that gives you an idea.
My swap includeing install, upgraded computer, and new rear axle was $3500 total. Got a good hook up. Keep an eye out I will have turbo or SC soon hopefully. Working out which will work better and be more cost effective.

6s.......under the hood or under the belt, they just dont cut it.
Hello every one, ozzy here ive been looking at this page for weeks now finally joined. So my question is why is it that every turbo build forum just ends...
Just ordered some Toyo 315/35/17 tires for my 17x11 rims. Hopefully I can get them on the beginning of next year. Will post pics.
