Get a hold of Brian@JPA and Richard@WCCH (members on this site), PM them and they can tell you what your gonna need and will build if for you at a cost alot cheaper then if you think. I would say with an FLT tranny, built engine and top of the line FI you can get away with 15K.

I 2nd this suggestion. To me, this sounds like a setup that'll keep a big, goofy-looking grin on your face 24/7!

FLT = Finish Line Transimissions,
Brian @ JPA = JPA,
Richard @ WCCH = West Coast Cylinder Heads.

They are sponsors and they all have links to the Right in the sponsor column
---> ----> -----> ----->
Easiest way to get a hold of Richard or Brian is the PM or call them during buissness hours. Best way to get a hold of FLT is to call them.

If your talking about putting the engine together I'm not sure about that, your gonna have to ask them, but they use one of the best engine builders around in a guy called Rex (aka jetmann on here).

I believe you'll have to change your driveshaft if you change your tranny from a 4L60E to a 4L80E which can handle more power. FLT can let you know what else needs to be modified. Depends on your power plans.

Here's a link to what it's like to deal with richard...
