I'm a complete noob to motor builds. That being said,how much money am I look at for building my engine to handle twins and putting the twins on it? What size injectors would I need and would I need a bigger fuel pump? Goal for my truck is 450/550

Turbos are difficult. There isn't a bolt on kit so you'd have to pay to fabProbably $10,000+ because you'll need a trans to handle your 40s and the doubled horsepower too.
Edit: fuel delivery is the last of your worries. But dual walbros and 60lb Injectors probably

Rough estimation: 10 grand before you even get to the twins.

Put a BBC in it. And the only twins you will get will be blonde, and wanting to hold you tightly

Look at the promar stage II long block and go from there if you don't know anything about engines. Up to 18 lbs and $4200

Wonder how it holds up? Really not a bad deal at all!
