I've built 2v's....both can be done full built shortblocks for $4-5k and have the best of everything. now assuming the heads are alright and the supercharger, I dont see how it comes out to 10k when your doing your own work. Even if your not...i still dont see it getting past the 7k mark.
Slowleen,
I would be willing to bet you that the link below is what will be in that truck when it's all said and done. $8,995. + shipping ++, and that doesn't take into account any "nic nacs" that it will take to finish the job, nor the tuning, nor the labor to install it, ect.... I don't think he will be replacing it with another "weak rod" stock block.

This is a motor like Mike has in his truck.
