Nice!! I wish I could get what I want done for $2,500. I need to stop thinking of things to do to the car.

Haha. 2500 is just the rebuild. I also want to convert it to the LS1 PCM, which would cost me about 1500, and I want to put nice brakes on, which'll run me about 2000. Throw in the Corvette wheels and 285 rubber for all four corners, and total cost for what I want, not counting anything cosmetic, is actually around 7500.

Add in the cosmetic stuff and its about 10,000 total. But it would be a beast of a car, and super clean to boot, for a total investment of less than 15,000. Thats not too bad, in my opinion.

I will be finished power wise after my fall build, but will still have a couple of other things I want to do. Those things are minor in cost compared to everything else.
