If you buy an adapter kit you should be able to do it for $14-15K. Lots of work to do this as I did the LT Chev and it has taken a long time in what little spare time I had. Plus the cold garage I work in.
Here is a rough budget to go with;

- Adapter kit (complete) $5500-6500
- Used 5.7/Tranny $5000 (I got a 2016 Chev 5.3/8 spd Auto/ all accessories/wiring harness/ECU/TCU with 16,000miles for $3500 + 700 for shipping)
- U-joint new driveshafts $1000
- New exhaust $700
- Adapting AC to Hemi $500
- Suspension kit (Good one - got to hold up that extra weight) $2000
- That myriad of nuts, bolts, clips, brackets etc $500
