golen engine service 383 TPI long block. for 5200 bucks?
ECM chip for $540.
uses eagle rotating assembly which is about 1000 right there and AFR heads are 1400 or so. i think i can build one for less tho. what do you think? is it worth it?

I have roughly $3500 in mine peicing it together. Most shops only get $1-400 to assemble an engine
Yes that cam is about the same as the GM Hot cam kit, can't remeber what it costs, but since the heads come with springs and retainers you could buy the cam seperate. Figure $3200-$3500 if you have a block and it is ready to go.
