It is all a function of cost of parts going in. In my case, KC charged very reasonable costs for the parts (compared to other order places such as Summit). The labor included standard rates for honing, etc. Then there is a $800.00 charge for assembly. Dyno time is ~$450 plus fuel. In my case the total came to something like $11,500 including dyno time and shipment to VA.

Going to expspensive items such as the Dart block, AFR 225's, and 4340 crank and rods adds to the cost, but is required to let the motor live and make the power.
