I'm looking for a rough estimate on costs to rebuild the donor motor for the FFR.

What am I looking at if the following holds true?


Polish crank journals
Bore/hone block .010 over
rings
cam bearings
main bearings
rod bearings
gaskets
(other incidentals i missed)


Longterm (1-2 years after the car is on the road), I want to build up something really potent with an R302 block. (High RPM, High compression.. the whole 9 yards). I'm trying to decide if it's better for me to rebuild this or to pick up a low mileage shortblock, move the heads and EFI stuff over and disassemble the spent block as a learning experience.

go buy one from blue oval corral, call chad they have good deals 727-571-1996 i think
