well lets put this into perspective,a 34,000 dollar car(GTO) is alot of money too, and than to mod a car with warranty is a no no,he'll have to wait 3 years for that to begin,if he wants a warranty anyway. My car cost me 21,600 bucks brand new, i didnt start modding it until the warranty was gone, now by adding the kb $5,000, and when i do forge the bottom end $6,000 estimated, build the rearend $275est 31sp axles, $450est detroit trutrac diff, good clutch $400est,flywheel $100est,add another $2000 for anything i missed or problems u might run into and in the end you can have(i'm hoping
) a powerful and dependable(for the most part) fast 500rwhp(or close to it) pump gas monster that wont get good gas mileage but will be a ton of fun, for an estimated cost of $35,825, call it 36 grand and its still great bang for your buck.
