You will have over a 1500 bucks in bolts and gaskets making over 600hp.
Block and internals at least 5k.
Heads will cost at least 2k if you port or go aftermarket.
Trans to handle it will cost over 3k
Converter 600 up
Power adder and assesories could be from 3k - 10k.

Power cost money.... how fast you wanna go?

Right! - I was just reflecting upon that one dude who tied a DC-9 engine to his F150. I guess it worked for a little while, then the engine got away from him.. that was all she wrote RIP.
One whitness from a distance said it flew (smoked) through the air in corkscrew motion toward a mountain. No explosion witnessed, that was pretty much it. However they did find his favorite color on the face of that mountain.
