I'd say thats about right for a quality 3L swap with a few extra goodies done by the DIY'r.
My original 3L with all the extensive valve/head work plus a 2.5" exhaust ran me around $1500 because I did so much work myself.
I think I was about $2000 into it by the time I had done headers, gauge pod with EGT, and a few other small mods.

What are your goals with the car? What are your future plans? Keeping it N/A, or possibly adding a bottle/turbo down the road? I'm guessing with the high CR, it's either a bottle or N/A for you. Figure ~$750 for pistons, ~$1500 for headwork, $600 for LSD, ~$350 for clutch, ~$400 for gaskets/hardware, and $600 for tuning(PRP). That's $4200 right there, but could always be done for less.

Engine and pieces to freshen it up $600-1000
Head work $0-1000
LSD & misc bits $600-650
Clutch kit $300-400
Flywheel $50-300
Shift forks $75
Suspension kit $650-750
Solid roll resistor $50-100
Labor for said crap if not a DIYer. $1000-1500
There is a quick way to spend $2000-5000.
