I added all the goodies replaced almost everything except the crank and rods on my 235 plus chromed it out. I think with the upgrades and machine work it was around 3,500.00 to 4,000.00.

Here is a couple of place to call and maybe they already have one done.

I say if you can do it yourself its worth the savings.
