But if your block is still fresh, then you're looking at 190 with a new cam.
Well, thats assuming you can get trade rates.
i rebuilt my erst engine a few months ago,i got a block bored out 20thou,new rings,main bearings,big end bearings,complete engine gasket set and head bolts and it all came to £270 and i rebuilt it myself

i dont believe these engines ever last, its worth doing properly and having it balanced, crank ground if requiered, new oil pump, water pump etc etc, i'd imagine you dont want to put an engine in that mite not last? unless crank and everything is mint you'll have new shells etc but low oil pressure due to this
rst in progress
depends what bhp your going to run. The one i rebuilt about 8 years ago was still going strong up until the car falling to bits a couple of years ago....probs did 50k running about 170 bhp... The engine maybe in another car now too

but if a freshen up is what your after id say £50 to hone bores, £70 rings, £125 for shells and mains (providing crank doesnt need a frind)gaskets and head bolts £60, oil pump £80 and water pump £35 if this helps?
