.040 rebuild kit-500

either a set of 70 heads or gt40 heads- free

aftmkt cam kit- 300

ford racing intake pn:c90x-9424 a - free

650 cfm holley- dunno didnt check them out yet lol

100-150 shot nitrous kit- 400ish

set of shorties and non catted x pipe. 200

straight through mufflers 120

ghetto suspension setup
-swaybar removed
-4 cyl springs up front stock springs cut in the rear
-stock boxed control arms
-new bushings on the stock rear control arms

I built my 351W for $1,800. It goes 12.60-70's on motor. $1,800 was just for the motor.
