Default Is this a good price?

For a cossie engine to go into my rwd conversion.

Quote:
To use a good 205 block that we have at std bore now; and taking it to 0.5 rebore with pistons, new oil pump. all bearings and thrust washers, sump, front cover, good 4wd head, std cams, tappets, belt & tensioner. Basically a complete bottom end with head, cams and timed up ready to fit would be around £1500.


Then there are the ancillarys, 4x4 loom and ECU, starter, alternator, inlet, turbo, manifolds etc, probably be another 1500 or so id imagine?
