Hello everyone,
Basically what I'm just about ready to swap a gsr block onto my b16 head, I have all the parts I need except a gsr crank, and timing belt. I went to a local shop today here in Oregon to get a price quote on assembling the shortblock, putting my b16 head on the block, and installing some ITR cams. They quoted me $1200 dollars for just the assembly but that seems rediuclous to me. After it's all assembled a friend and I can swap the assembled motor in the car, but I don't really want to mess around with the internals. My question is, do any NW people know of any other shops or local people I can try to get a better price from/help me assemble it? Thanks for looking
