$200 for assembly of a short block (pistons, rods, rings, bearings, crank, etc)
$45 to refit the pin fittings on the eagle rods because they are slightly too small
$50 rehone darton closed deck sleeves
$120 to balance it fully
$35 to polish the crank

I third that

 

where in az are you getting this all done?? or are you sending this all out?

 

I've never paid for any engine work but $85 to surface the block!?! Why does it cost so much to surface it? I thought that would be one of the cheaper things.

 

Those prices are good. I charge a lot more for shortblock assembly.

 

yeah that does look like real good prices I just hope the work is quality

 

Those prices are too cheap. Nobody who actually does it right would do it that cheap, it just takes too much time. I'd be weary of the quality of work...

 

Get a Helms and assemble it yourself.

 

Those are all average and below average prices. I just hope you aren't getting what you pay for.

 

those are good prices

 

i had my work done at the same place that Ryan is getting his done at and it was about the same prices... the work they did is awesome... i love it and they are one of the best around

I hear a lot of good things about Basko, they do good work and are priced great. but i hear that they take a long time to get your **** done.
