that includes complete block prep,intake, pan, oil pump, push rods, rotator kit w/ pistons, rods, rings, bearings, and crank. carb, timing chain & gear set, cam, roller lifters, cam bearings, full gasket kit, complete cylinder head re-build, arp bolt kit for everything, water pump, and i believe thats about all. block work would include all the necessary, such as, milling the decks, honing lifter bores, r&r cam bearings, boring , boiling, magna fluxing, adding priority oiling ports, line boring, sonic checking, etc...
cylinder head overhaul would consist of a competition valve job, bronze guides, decking, valve seals, springs, and setting installed heights, etc..... when ur doing something the right way there really is no cheap way out.. just some food for thought if u want reliability!
