Not Ranked
It's expensive. The pans are not bad, but pumps are close to $800-900 by themselves. The crank mandrel, tank, lines, fittings, etc., will add another $1000 and with non-common engine platforms, getting all the accessories mounted and in line can be a pain in the booty. I bought a complete set up for Gary's engine from Jones Racing Products and even then, I had to send parts back/forth to be tweaked.
For horsepower, it just depends. It depends on how often you drive the car, what the purpose is for it, how hurting you are for hood clearance, etc. Thinner ring packs are not on par with a daily driver.
For you, I don't think it's worth the cost.
