+1, when you consider the parts used, prices are actually better.....
for instance,I did a quick check with JEGS/SUMMIT....
for a 347 stroker:
Eagle cast crankshaft-----about $205.00
Eagle forged crankshaft----about $650.00
Eagle forged H beam rods---about 400 bucks
I beam rods---------about 200 bucks

Patriot aluminum heads------895.00
AFR aluminum heads---------1500.00

I'm seeing about 1200 bucks difference in parts price alone on 3 parts and the above quoted engine was 900 bucks more with all forged components!!!!!!!!!!
