How much moolah will I need?

5.3 stroker, ported heads and intake, cams, and complete valvetrain swap.

Also add in for fuel, intake, other necessary supporting mods, and labor.

~12k.

Good deal. I've been pinching pennies and filling my savings account

I know I'm only 1/4 the way there for the price of a nice low mileage Termi, but by the end of next year, you'll be seeing my Mach sitting next to a Termi and then I'm going to have the Mach turned into a NA monster.

My major bill is insurance.:/

If anyone else has a more specific number then great, but I just wanted a general idea. I don't want this to turn into "another kid lookin for big horsepower and never gonna happen kind of thread".

Yeah. 5.3's require sleeved cylinders and are quite a bit more expensive than a 5.0 or 5.1 stroker.
