you will need a good set of rods (Pauter, Manley, Eagle if running moderate power), forged pistons (many to choose from), good machine work

Depending on horse power goals ERL has several different packages for rotating assembles to chose from. You can check out our website and go to the engine catalog to get some good info. Also we have tech articles that help understand our sleeving/machining methods.

You can expect 2000+ for an assembled bottom end.

Roughly $3900 with the ARP bolts and the cometic gasket.

I attached a page with some of their prices.

Also you can see the details of each short block package they have in the link below. Check out page 10, which is the "C2" package.
