Sounds to me like you have your head screwed on right, and a fair gauge of how it all plays out...
Local kits are certainly a great option... but regardless of the kit, costs will always blow out... I budgeted a $10K F-Up factor in mine... and have quickly chewed through that with minor items - fancy bolts, trims, higher quality oils & greases, extra bits and pieces...etc...
In the end my thoughts were I'm only planing to do this once but I'm doing it properly!
With regard cost - If you want to make an omelet, you got to break some eggs.
