Matt don't feel bad bro. I have $4k into just my block alone!! LOL Add heads, intake and carbs and kick it up another $4k!! And I still need slugs, rotating assy balanced and all the gaskets, bearings and hardware. But your building something very cool and unique. Like what the others have said you'll wow everyone when you lift the hood. I think it's a really cool engine and you deserve a big congrats for undertaking something out of the ordinary. Keep pluggin away and havin fun!!
