blown 383 costs I finally got the motor back and here is the final breakdown on costs:
Block machining w/hone deck $300.00
Valve job $110.00
Pressure test heads $ 0.00
Cylinder head resurfacing $ 70.00
SCAT/Probe Forged Rotating assembly $1389.00
Upgrade to 4340 steel crank $250.00
Upgrade to 4340 H beams $120.00
Assemble long block $450.00
Complete balance $125.00
Stroker clearance $ 45.00
Canton 15-242T Pan $283.00
Oil pan pick up $ 34.00
Cut dual key on crankshaft + machine front timing cover for BB hub $100.00
Splayed caps + machine work for conversion $275.00
Stroker clearance $45.00
Gasket set $121.00
ARP head studs & main studs $171.00
Melling oil pump $ 0.00
Crane lifters $155.36
Total labor: $1475.00
Total parts: $2523.36
Total + 8.25% sales tax = $4,206.54
Does that sound like a fair price for a fully forged 383 with the 4 bolt splayed main cap conversion?
How much power and boost do you think the motor can handle?
-B
P.S. I forgot to mention that the price includs CC 977 springs & seats, Speed Pro Hell Fire rings, clevite bearings, & melling oil pump. They also spent time clearancing the oil pan to clear the dipstick tube.
