Talk to Eric Koenig at HK Enterprises. Does great work and very good pricing. He did the machining work on my LS6 block.

We aren't on the north side but if you only wanted the block honed with a torque plate and clearanced it would be around 250.00. If you wanted other stuff or assembly of course it gets higher so LME may have quoted you a whole build which would be more of course.

Thanks as well for the nice words from everyone.
