That runs about $14K (assuming your Indy is doing the work) before you actually buy the engine...
A cheap used engine with all the wiring stuff will cost at least $4K.
So $18K for starters. Well over $20K if you want the big balls engine.
Or you could look at this way, a GT3 engine in a Boxster is not feasible/cost effective
So the Chevy is sorta like getting 996.1 GT3 engine power at a bit of a discount. What's another $20K at this point...
