I haven't had one built, but to get a built block and heads from Fullblown (or MAP Performance or similar) is just about $6K, + shipping cost + cost of removing your engine and sending it as a core (plus the money you lost because you didn't sell it), plus shipping again, plus whatever money is added to assembling the built engine, it all adds up to close to $10K.
After that, you're still left to deal with the glass trans, whose packages to build start at $6K (only to be rated at 350 tq), and can go as high as $20+K, or need to buy a T56 or similar plus the fab work to get it mated to this motor, plus custom driveshaft, custom mount, etc... add another minimum $6K....
Basically, you add all of that money, plus the money you can get selling your your motor, trans and other mods you have bought that work, and you can swap an LS or any other motor to the car and make more power and have it more reliable...
