the rods and pistons where a lil over 1200 bucks (8.5:1), the cams were 620 + s&h, which was around 30 if i remember correctly, head gasket was a lil over 60, arp head studs were 160, fuel pressure regulator was around 65. kit was 2500, i have about 7600 in the motor, and before i get the typical "you can get a 3sgte for that" comments i didnt want a 3sgte, i didnt want the wiring headaches, and i wanted to build the 5S because thats not real common, and i know i can run if not out run a 3sgte powered celi (stock or slightly modded) i have been tempted to try a head swap with a 3sgte head, but if i do thats gonna have to wait till i get more than a couple bucks in my account =)
