Depends on what internal are being used, My engine build was originally 5300 (not including install) using custom carillo rods, Custom JE pistons with forged side reliefs, lightened crank, etc.

I think you'd have better luck actually making them readable.

While I am perfectly capable of manipulating digital images, it's much easier to just click "back".

Ummm, thats cheap. they are billing you for around 30 hours of labor, which is low by industry standard. Is that RTC? If it is, I'd pay twice that for gash to do the labor, guy really is good at what he does on mitsu's

thats understandable, and you'll find places that are higher and lower. and short of buying a motor from some place like buschur and installing it yourself, It would be hard to get quality for a much better price. and like I said, from most of the stuff Ive seen them build, I would trust my car there.
