Right now my wallet is crying.

I actually got a really good deal. The head, intake cam, and intake manifold I got from a guy in Holland for $380 INCLUDING shipping. I was pretty impressed with that because I've seen just the mani. sell for more on Ebay and the intake cam sells for $200 new.

The other stuff set me back a little. The headers $450, the ARP's $145, the lifters $160 =$790 with the shipping.

I just can't wait to get everything on and re-dyno.

Definitely. Putting the headers on will be biggest pain in the ass of it.

Can anyone recommend a place with a press to put the cam gears on cheaply?

The last time I talked to BBM they didn't have any plans for a VR kit. But anything is possible with time and money.
