Bit of an open ended question without knowing how far you want to go with it mate?? I.e proper forged pistons/steel rods etc, and whether you want to reuse all your ancilleries i.e oil pump, water pump etc. It's not as cheap as you'd think if you do it properly with ALL new bits, steel rods etc.....can easily be 2k plus.
