so i dropped most of my internals off at the machine shop. i was told the cam is shot and should go ahead and spend the money and get a Comp Cams kit. Since i want to re do this motor once and right i decided to go ahead and go with his suggestion. He mentioned the crank wasnt to bad and i can get it ground to a 10 - 10. 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?
