only thing done to the motor is, hardend pushrods, double roller, titanium springs, tr224 cam, slp oil pump and a golf tee for a plug for my dip stick tube since i broke the old one LOL. as far as the trans i have a 3k stall, the tranny build will happen about mid summer, im takin it to a local shop and have a race build done.

let see i paid $1600 the motor with everything already on it (it used to have a MS3 and i traded it for the TR224). then about $300 for the stall. $150 for fluids and misc. $200 for the tune. $100 for trans cooler, servo that i never installed, water pump gaskets, def replace these, all other gaskets are reuseable. so id say somewhere on the low end of $2000 which isnt to bad considering the platform that i have now, the truck might not run the way i want now, but i got SOO much room to expand

Not bad, throw a 200 progressive on it when you get everything else built up and you'll be knocking on 10's w/ a nasty 60ft.

I *almost* hooked on a 200 shot dead nuts outta the hole. 150 shot was not a problem though.

With these swaps, does anything change from the LS1 being connected to an M6? I see a lot more M6 engines than A4 for sale.
