I guess I just focused more on the information the OP asked for, which was within a budget that your Magnuson doesn't fit into. I think this has been addressed, twice now.
I'm confused if you pay what everyone else pays and get your hands dirty on all of your previous builds why you would pay someone else to bolt up your Magunson, especially when you have no problems taking it all back off when you plan to do your own forged internals?

Few things:
1. I said there are always deals if you look for them. Yes. I always find deals. Sometimes The deals are not monetary. Sometimes they are. I am perfectly willing to pay more sometimes too.
2. I said I get my hands dirty, that doesn’t mean I do it all myself. I am not a mechanic, but I enjoy working on cars. It’s a peaceful distraction from my day job. So yes, I get my hands dirty doing stuff, but I would never trust myself to be the guy doing it alone (I wouldn’t have the right tools or know how). NEVER. I just love learning about it and helping where I can. Make sense?
3. As far as OP, he made a good choice for his setup. Anyone who buys into the garbage that the blowers have too much torque down low are either foolish or simply haven’t driven the cars to know what they are talking about. My Procharger Vette was breaking the tires loose at 50mph all day long. So I had to learn how to control the throttle. It’s no different with a Maggie or an LT4 blower like chosen here (and present on stock cars from Mustangs, to corvettes Ron camaros). A driver has to learn how to drive with the blower...if it’s 3/4 throttle like a Procharger, or 1/3 throttle like an LT4 blower...still have to learn to drive. The fast list shows my point clearly. Not one Procharger without a Converter. Because that’s the smart way to go with a centrifigul. If you aren’t racing, don’t worry about it. You will have a blast with any of them...and be able to make any stock car look like it’s in slow motion.
