The usual price for a sr20 bottom end rebuild. Just the labor

[DJ Cool Breeze]

I have found all my parts for my rebuild and will be recieving them shortly...So how much do you usualy have to pay in labor to install:

Pistons/Rods/bearings/headgasket/oil pump/water pump..???

and do i have to have them clean the head because of the metal flakes in the oil pan?

Please just tell me its not over 1,500 in labor alone

Sounds expensive already....Save the trouble. Do it yourself :]

$1000 would be a good price at a reputable machine shop, this should include boring the block too.

[DJ Cool Breeze]

do i need to bore my block??....$1,000 thats it? that seems very cheep, that includes taking out the motor and putting it back in?

[kamikazi]

prices vary depending on where you live, how good and honest they are. if you are going stock bore then it will only need rehoned, well its a smart thing to do. call up the local shops bcause its kinda hard to give a cost estimate.

oh, its going to cost alot more if they pull the motor and take it apart. not to sure if you will be able to have the bottom end built for less than 1k unless you pull it.

i figgured it would be more to pull the motor..i figgure about 500 more...id try this myself, but i live in an appartment building and they dont alow that. I have to have them pull it.

I am probably going to go through JGY out here in VA...I have heard a few good things about them on nico

[exode]

jgy does pro bottom end rebuilds, I ship my blocks to them for rebuilds. They do great valve work too, thats my next job. I'll do everything but head & shortblock rebuilds D= even tune with a narrowband! lol =D

[DJ Cool Breeze]

just got an e-mail back from jgy...they said $750 in labor charges to rebuild the bottom end ....way cheeper then i had thought...i need some good news after finding out my motor is crap

[Mouse6933]

just curious is that with them pulling your motor? and are you going with stock bore?

[DJ Cool Breeze]

yes thats with stock bore...i would go bigger but then i have to get new sleves and they are like $400...and im on a budget.....im guessing thats with the motor in the car....ill be more specific when i talk to them next
