That sounds like you got a fine deal greg. I just got my jugs back last night and will be tossing them in this weekend.
So far my costs are:
Wiseco Kit (on sale) $400 from BelaCorse
Misc bits (gaskets,washers, shims) $70 From dealer
Sleeve/machine install $196 from Wiseco, includes s/h and a cleaning fee.
Port and polish heads $100 at Seely Speed Shop (Get them back Monday)
My labor Free
Beer (lots) Free for me
Bleeding Knuckles - priceless
Looks like about $750-800 with me doing most of the work.
Sounds like you got someone else to do the work for about the same price, less the port and polishing.
Cool, we gotta hook up sometime and compare notes and taste test some liquids.
