Cost for labor on stroker build?

Oh geez, at that point I might be better off building up the top end. Never realized how expensive it would get doing a stroker kit. I’m looking for something that’s very street able but can get me bragging rights. Thank you all for your input and help!
What are you doing for top end ? If your using just the 340 top end (heads) you may gain a few hp, but what your mainly doing is lowering the powerband in rpm, eg.. Say your 340 engine likes 3000-6000 rpm a 416 might be 2500-5500 rpm or less.
