So heres the deal... I'm used to smaller engines, well for rebuilding at least. I've taken apart my dirtbike and rebuilt that last year and now this year im rebuilding another blown snowmobile in a few days. Parts are actualy on order. So im not really new to ripping apart engines. I know how much honing and boring jugs are sopose to be and where to go for the best deal/ best work. I just need a little guidance because Im not sure on a block. Where should I go. There is a machine shop in town so ill probally go get some quotes and info, but what prices should I be expecting? I want to do a .020 overbore probaly with TC's rotating assemble(or comparible parts) So basicaly prepping the block for 800 horses if need be as well as valve springs for the upped boost. Mine as well set it and forget it right? lol. So how much am I looking for in labor for boaring/any other chemical finish/cleaning process that they normaly would do? Shipping? And please don't tell me go with TC's engine, I know he does great work but I chould build a 800 hp block with valve springs for less then the 400 budget shortblock. And im not to worried about the install.
