HAHAHAHA MOTEC LAWLZ you guys know a Motec calibrated for a vk is around 10,000 right? the BASE ecu you need for a v8 coil on plug, fuel injected engine is around 6500 and after software and options you're up to 10k. The are awesome and capable of controlling vvel through driver subboards, but why when you can have sam throw an fcon in there that does the same thing?I would budget this for around 20k plus minimum 5k for the electrical, setup and tuning at a shop.

Edit: if you backyarded it and used a salvage totally stock rebuilt vk56de(3000), hks fconvpro(2000), and did the cutting welding and fab including super custom snakey headers that avoid the frame and the engine bay and steering(1000 for metal gas supplies and machining), custom drive shaft to move the whole thing back so it doesn't effect the balance(no more CF for you, $600), plus EXTENSIVE body work to fix everything you have to cut and have a new hood fiberglassed($?????), interior work to fix the now punched back firewall and center console($????), you are bank into this. An LS would be much cheaper but it would be chevy at heart
