Are you boring a stock block to 84.5mm? If so, I don't think it would hold up, but if I'm wrong boring is usuall about $15-35 a hole plus $65 to hot tank(wash) it.

bore + hone, done correctly is not cheap. Shops will routinely do a poor job on this, and it is among the handful of super critical clearances in the engine.
Endyn charges $300 for a bore/hone. They are accurate to the .0001.
