Assuming you use the accessories and belt drive from the Gen III engine, we're talking about fabricating 2 motor mounts, exhaust to connect to the manifolds and a stand-alone wiring harness and computer. The harness is about $500.00 and the computer is a wrecking yard item. All told, parts should not total more than $1500.00. To me that is not "ridiculous" for a project of this type. I've seen people spend way more than that to do projects that made less sense Jim.
Of course, if you don't possess the necessary fabrication and welding skills that cost goes way up. And if you are one of those "drop it off at the shop and write a check when it's done" guys, then for YOU it is cost prohibitive. Real hot rodders have been doing these non-standard engine swaps for years. You just have to be able to do it yourself instead of paying someone else.
