I did some math:
short block 4630
AFR heads 1700
Polished intake 375
Polished water pump 200
timing cover 110
carburator 400
fuel pump -50
alternator 120
pulley /bracket 300?
starter 200?
flywheel 200?
Oilpan 350
oil pump 75
distributor and wires 350
gaskets and sealant 200
arp bolts 225

I am at $9500 for a fully polished engine with 9 quart pan, billet distributor etc. You are doing all the brain work, the rest is just plug and play especially since everything else is new. Only brain work would be valve adjustment and a monkey could be taught to do that, smoking deal!!! Absolute worst case scenerio would be $10K
