If people could do this by themselves....cost would be substantially cut down.....and as a result there would probably be a lot more of these running around.

If you plan on doing all the labor yourself than 20k for 600whp is doable. If not than probably 25k- 30k. This includes a rebuilt bottom end......but get ready for some major headaches and expect to see the shop every few hundred/thousand miles? Lots of minor stuff will keep popping up...that's just the nature of a NA----->FI Z.

If you are new to this....I would suggest starting at a lower hp rating and doing a lot of research!

As a wise man once said..."with great power comes great responsibility"...haha
