Look at the Ford 514 and the Chevy 572. Apx,..... 8k to 14k with 625 HP. To build a FE with that much, it's from 18k to 25k. Approximately guys !
It depends upon your goals. If you're happy in the 400-500 HP range, I'd expect a small difference in price between an FE and a BBF. If you're looking for 550+, then the BBF will be much cheaper.

Begin with the end in mind.
