Starters, engine mounts, manifolds (that you'll probably discard)... these are $100ish items against the main purchase, you'd have to agree.
Although I'd love to stretch the budget to the 427ci LS7, it's about half the price to fit a cammed 6.0L L98 (no DoD, better heads than LS2). Current pricing would be something like:
L98 crate $5000
Engine/body loom + ECU with no VATS etc $2000
Engine accessories $1000
Starter $130
LS7 clutch from the states $700
Cam + dyno $2000
450+ HP
