Default Engine assembly cost

Due to some nitrous detonation 2 of my pistons are messed up and a little scarring on cylinder walls 5 and 7. Nothing a hone cant take care of. I can get a decent deal on a 383 stroker kit (pistons, rods, crank, bearings, ect). About how much in labor and whatnot am i looking at in getting it hot tanked, honed, assembled, ect? Just a rough estimate on how much ill be looking at. Ive already got the motor out of the car and will be putting it back in myself, just wanna know about the machine work and assembly.

I paid $1000 for machine work and assembly of my 383 shortblock. That included line hone, cylinder hone, balancing, cam degreeing, cleaning, etc. That also included milling and setup of my AFR heads.
