It's probably been 10 yrs since I last rebuilt an AH engine, so I might jus=
t be out of touch the rising costs. Has anyone recently had machine shop wo=
rk done on a 100 engine and could you let me know if what I paid seems reas=
onable? I've had work done at this particular shop and consider them the be=
st around, so the quality of work isn't questioned. Keep in mind I supplied=
all parts (valves, springs, guides, cam bearings, freeze plugs, etc.). Al=
so I delivered a disassembled engine, and I'm assembling the engine.
Clean and machine stock flywheel $140
Head- cook, Magna Flux, replace guides, machine seats/ guides, resurface, =
and assembly $510
Clean, Magna flux and resize rods $260
Clean/ grind crank and machine slinger area for rear seal kit $580
Block- cook, deck, install one cylinder sleeve, bore all 4, line bore mains=
, install cam bearings, install freeze plugs, machine lip off rear main cap=
for rear seal kit. $1,675
I know this is a loaded question, and really just curious if these seem a =
bit inflated. When I Googled average costs, it seems high, but then again, =
it's not a Chevy.
TY, Shawn
