This sound like a good deal?

Here's a cut-and-paste of an email I got from FPS regarding 351W based stroker kits.

--------------
A complete engine including AFR CNC 185 cylinder heads, retro fit custom hyd
roller cam, JE Pistons, H Beam rods, FPS billet main support and windage
tray, Canton 7qt pan, 1.7 ratio pacific roller rockers, manley chromoly
pushrods, felpro gaskets, arp head bolts, stainless bolt kit, melling hv oil
pump, arp oil pump drive, TFS or GT40 intake, 3800 FPS crank, (for a full
listing of parts pleas call) This example will make 450 hp and approx 460
foot lbs of torque in EFI trim. Will also be nitrous capable with no
problem. This long block would run approximately $6,150.00 depending on the
exact items you pick out.
---------------------------

The only thing I'd changed are the pistons (for use with N2O I have a feeling the JE pistons have a high silicone content). But all in all I thought $6150 was a damn good price for such an engine. What do you guys think?

------------------
1984 1/2 GT350 (#842 Hatchback w/ T-tops), 302HO, Comp cams Xtreme Energy cam, Carter 625cfm carb, Weiand Stealth intake, MSD distributor, MSD coil, FMS 9mm wires, 1 5/8" MAC unequal shorties, 2 1/2" MAC Prochamber H-pipe, Flowmaster 2 chambers, KYBs, 16"x8" 4 lug Cobra Rs, Falken 245/45ZR16s

So I pushed it up to 110,
That flathead motor was about to give in,
I crossed my fingers and prayed to the lord,
Don't let me down you fuct up ford!"
