Well, let's see. $3,200 for the engine. $350 for the C230 flywheel, $4,500 for the Motec M600 (not including dynos & custom maps) $400 for the custom IC heat exchanger, $250 for the custom coolant tank, $180 for the IC pump, $200 for custom IC plumbing, $2,400 for the Schrick Cams, $1,000 for the custom headers, $300 for the wide band O2 sensors, $1,100 for the SPEC clutch. Not to mention a few other odds & ends and about 40 hours of wiring and another 40 hours removing the old engine and installing the new one. And probably 100 hours of research.
Feel free to do the math.
