If he was stupid and paid retail pricing for every part (assuming he bought everything brand new including the block and head) he listed I still can't see more than 15k tops. Do the #'s seem kind of low for that setup to anyone else? Oh well, some people are full of BS.

I can believe the $ he has put in, I have over 10k in my motor and I am not making anywhere near what he is. Everything adds up and don't forget labor if you are not doing it yourself.

cosmetic dont make 86 mm head gasket only 85 mm. Golden Eagle do an 86.

Very risky with OEM timing belt.
