Blueprint short block

Exactly! 9-10k for a basic running engine is a joke. A friggin $1,000 for an intake, $800 cams, ect. Only in the Mopar world do these prices seem reasonable. But the Mopar world seems content with half done cars that sit in garages for decades while pennies are pinched.
I don’t think 485 hp and 470 ft/pds fuel injected engine is a “basic running engine”. Are mopar parts more expensive absolutely. Is 10,000 high for that performance level and fuel injection? I don’t think so.
