The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Engine Shop Engine Rebuilding, 270 GMC, Who Still Rebuilds?

I'm up in Grass Valley and the machine shop here has a labor rate of $160 per hour. The last engine I had them do just the machine and component balancing was $3000, that was probably 10 years ago. So that's not over priced. I assembled the engine and put it in and the guy I did it for was a happy camper. If you are interested P/M me and if you are interested I can do the grunt work, I'm a retired auto mechanic and have all the tools needed.
