He will be boring it 20 over and also clean the heads up and the intake and pleneum. the heads had ARP bolts so i will be re using them. New pistons and he mentioned new rods due to a new cam kit and new pistons.
Engine clean and bore $250
Crank grind $200
didnt ask about the heads getting cleaned up.

Does this make sense to you guys and gals?
Hopefully he has experience building our turbo motors otherwise it could turn out bad... As for parts,, if you want to do it right and do it once, I recommend our Roller cam kit, diamond piston and we have the Scat rods in stock... your builder should be able to get the King bearings, that's what we recommend. ARP main studs as well as some steel main caps.. give Gerry a call and he should be able to get you going, I'll be around if you need tot talk to me..
