Boy Bill, I gotta start bringing my stuff down to Danville. Just got my short block back and that was about $2,500, head was close to $500. Of course I had everything done except for line boring and crank grinding. Bored with new alum .020” over pistons, rods mach. for inserts, crank polished only, flywheel resurfaced, new exhaust valves, seats, guides and resurface. This included the bake out, all the new parts and assembly of engine. I’m a machinist myself but I don’t work with engines every day so I think it just makes good sense to let them finish the job. I’ve seen to many botched engine rebuilds where the back yard mechanic figured he know more than the guy that worked with these close tolerances every day.
And that’s about standard pricing for this part of the country.
