By the time you add up all the parts you'll need to buy, the machine work needed to put it together, etc. Your budget will be on par with many other motor choices. If you are dead set on a 429SCJ fine, otherwise it's not a stellar deal if it doesn't run good now. I would like to see a $1000 rebuild that didn't cut a bunch of corners on parts and machining, but I don't think it exists.
