It looks like a missed a line of type, The clients current machine is a quad 2.66 Mac Pro and I think 10.7 is the latest OS for it. Also, ram is expensive, they currently have 8GB, all slots filled.

This is product Apple doesn't make.
You might be better off with a used MBP.

A Hackintosh with the new Intel Core i7 5820K, a six-core unit for less than $400.00. It has a top clock of 3.6 GHz and 15 MB cache memory.
I'm not sure you can get that machine all-in for under $1k, and there is a lot of futzing around if you only build one Hackintosh. I enjoyed it on my personal machine, in fact I'm rocking it right now (i7-4770K Quad-Core), but would not recommend this to a paying client unless they enjoyed the futz factor too.
I wasn't being entirely serious. More pointing out the ongoing glaring gap in the Mac line up.
