Seriously? You're contemplating a 3.2 crank, rods, and 98mm P&C's ? You'll be well over $10K.

That said, race 3.0's make a lot more than 300hp regularly. I'm hoping for 275in my 10.5:1, 3.2 headed, DC62 cammed, headers and 46mm ITB motor. Even at 3.0 capacity though I'm sure it's going to cost me $10K ish, + the good bottom end condition core motor. I need 3.0 for competition rules.

Sell your 3.0 and buy a 3.6. Just IMO.
