I guess it depends on how you figure your costs

New Backdraft rolling chassis: $28,900
392 FMS Stroker $7400 at Scoggin Dickey
trans, clutch $ 2500-3000 depending on exactly what you use. (scattersheld, tko 600, double disc clutch, you can get away with $2500 and a week end to drop the engine in and sort it out.

Total $ $39,300, add your extras and that is what a do it yourselfer can put together a new car. I think the backdraft pricng on the 17" wheel package is confusing. If you buy 15' wheels on the aftermarket or 17' wheels , they are about the same price. Backdraft markets them as an upgrade, I personally don't thnk that is right, but just my $0.02 from someone who is not authorized to throw out the trash. I would think Backdraft would have more respect for their clientel, but again just my thoughts. I could be wrong
