Pretty. I remember parts day pickup. My stack looked very similar to yours but I also had cleggs go through my L92 heads
I love the look of freshly machined engine parts! I'll have a local shop go thru my 243 heads, that shouldn't be too hard to get done.
$1800?! been awhile since I had engine machine work done. Good to know though, since I"ll be doing this, probably there, soon enough.
Parts were $900, looks like the pistons were half of that cost. FelPro gasket set, oil pump, bearings, rings and 2 new connecting rods... it adds up quick. They claimed their prices for parts were pretty competitive with Summit, etc.
Labor for the machine work was $700, which is about right. If I sourced the parts myself, the total from the machine shop may have been more affordable.... but I'd still need the other parts.
Building an engine isn't cheap!
