That's sounds like a good price to me. Heck, in search of a shop to do my 440 block has had me walk out of places. Quotes of 5k + just for the short block ...and I have the parts. Keep us posted on the build, I'd love to hear that motor!

Found a local machine shop with a good reputation that's reasonable priced. Hot tank, magnaflux boring & honing will cost me ~$260, clearancing the block to my rotating assembly $80-120, Install cam bearings $60, assemble the short block $250. so all work to get the short block in shape will be ~$630...not too bad I guess. He suggested getting "H" series bearings...what's the significance of these series bearings? He was talking about clearance for crank radius or something but there was alot of noise in the background.
