Just to make some of u guys feel better… _ **$2000** in short blocks_…I had one short block rebuilt by Jan-Cen with ARP main studs and rod bolts. But, kept the stock hyperu. pistons. Lean cond. took out 3 pistons on that $1000+/- shortblock. Then I used a stocker, thought I had the lean cond. fixed…nope. Got another stocker…and its still together. _ **$1349** in camshafts_…since the GM Series II engine was still evolving (mod wise) There was a mild cam dubbed the VS cam _$275_ that came out first. Then this big lopey cam that sounded cool, but had enough overlap to really shit up my intake dubbed the Intense Stg. 3 _$299_. Then the current cam dubbed the XPZ cam $450 since it requires custom length pushrods E/I. But I killed it (pushed the “key” over half way around the cam when engine seized) with my last engine destruction, bought a new one. Only had to spend _$275_ since I had the pushrods. Well, actually throw another _$50_ since I needed 6 Exh. pushrods…all were bent. _ **$3099** in heads_…First pair I bought were a ~supposedly CNC P/P’ed with stainless valves/oversized valves. Had to use friggen Lead Subst. They def. flowed but, I bought them used and were quite abused and were on barrowed time. Purchased a pr of new heads for $1599 best things out…well, now there’s talk of some aluminum, CNC castings coming out…DAMN IT! _ **$800** into W/A Intercooler_…Bought this sweet mods and it DEF. made a big difference. I changed the front mount rad. a few times (kept buying bigger and bigger rads.) and now adding a resv. _ **$750** for headers_…SLP made headers…not much else to say…lol _ **$3900** ZZP Transmission_…4340 input/outputs shafts, 2750 stall, 3.29 gears (new chain) Extreme Duty Clutches/bands…evvvverything u can think of. _ **$350** DHP PowrTuner_…PCM scanner/writer _ **ALOT** of money on gaskets!_ _$50 Intake Manifold gasket set_ _$160 Cometic Head Gaskets_ _$10-$15 Supercharger Gaskets_ Could have saved myself some money if I would have found out the “lean condition” problem early on. It ended up being rust in the tank = fuel pump getting clogged = fuel filter getting clogged = inj = ect. There’s ALOT of stuff I left out, I spent alot on new lowering springs, brakes, ect. Gotta lover this addiction I eerrr mean hobby. :smash2: --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-much-do-you-have-in-your-street-car/24117)._
