That's about right. You kind of bounce around what we charge. Higher on some and lower on others.

Good luck.

Prices seem pretty high for a 402 shortblock. Just my .02¢

if youve already got an LS2, why pay for a new block?
unless they will give that 1200 bucks or whatever back as core when you give them your block...
(to save on down time...)

to be honest, its still tough to say without knowing what brand of rods/pistons/crank you would be going with.

a shelf piston and a custom piston can be drastically different in price.
