    Thats roughly what I had added up when i was doing mine if I woulda had the money

    New cc503 $225
    Zz4 timing set (ewp only) $60

    The advanced inductions 200cc head and cam package comes in under 3k. I think that's with sending your heads in to be worked.

    I don't remember the wait because I bought my setup back in 2012. I just prefer the cnc porting for the consistency.
