Price of a Hemi

There is nothing I would like to do more then build a SS/AA clone out of my '67 Barracuda, but I'm a little shy........Say about $12K /++++. Is there any other way other then starting out with a $12 thousand dollar crate??? I know that PAW has 392/354 parts and pieces, but even though I'm not trying to fool anybody, I'd prefer to stick with something closer to the 426.
