so if you sent a b18a1 short block that still ran and had them put arp rod bolts pr3 b16a pistons and and new main and rod bearings and piston rings what would an average shop charge to do this?
thanks

 

GO to a shop and ask....

They don't charge for a quote...

 

yea but they like to hassle with taking the block for lengthy periods of time. Which is inefficient, and that isn't the purpose of this question. What would be a fare price to charger for someone to assemble a B18/b16...etc?

 

While its still in the car??
