I think we ought to compare apples and apples here. IIRC, the $10k-$12k figure thrown around for a 2270 T4 was for a custom engine assembled with a lot of hands on involvement by a leader in T4 engine development and the owner of the company. Ask yourself what an engine hand assembled by Gene Berg would have cost?

Go to the Type 4 store and price out a 2056 kit. Soup to nuts, including exhaust, ignition, etc, comes to $6k. Pay a good assembler $2k and you are in budget.

Still expensive? Maybe, but I think it's important to make sure the numbers represent what they really are.
