I've now priced 4 "bigger" motor shops here locally

A- $2500-2800 for everything
B- $1500 to do short block only
C. 3500
D.3800


Needless to say I started pulling it apart tonight, how can people get this much to do a freshen up for a motor. You can buy parts decently priced
Rings- $200.00
Bearings- 200
Lifters 285
Springs-275
Replacement Chain- $45.00
Gaskets- 125.00

So checking it all, hone, assembly, valve job, degree cam, and dyno cost
anywhere from 1200 to 2500
