Machine work costs
Having my LS6 block worked on at a local machine shop. Have not had anywork done in a long time and want to see if we're in the ballpark price wise or if I should look somewhere else.
He is going to:
Clean/tank block and bore .006 out of it
"check" cam bore alignment
deck the block
turn crank and install.
He will provide and install forged pistons/rings, rods, all bearings, and my provided cam .
$3100.00
I might add that this shop has a very good reputation for producing reliable strong engines.
