If a person can do most or all of the labor, then there is a tremendous amount of savings. Some people are more gifted than others, so a "factory" assembly, would add $5,000 to a Kirkham. I purchased a Kirkham that was nearly fully loaded, but I think for a valid comparison to an ERA, as Warren G suggested, you would need to compare a fully loaded ERA against a fully loaded Kirkham. I still think the ERA would be a much less expensive build. We can always agree to disagree.
ng8264723, are you planning a 390 for your Kirkham or will you be installing a 427 or 428 based engine? I can attest first hand that those engines are more expensive to put together.
