I am ready to have my short block done here is what I need.

.30 over
check rods & Crank
purchase & install bearings
deck the block and all the other little things that need done.

I also whant them to build the short block. I will provide the Pistons, rings,cam and timing gear, timing chain

How much can I expect this to cost, what is fair.

Thanks

I'd Say 600-700 depends on what needs to be replaced, and cut, if you have the gaskets, and all want them to degree the cam, oil pump, tanking the block, cam bearings, bored and honed, cut the crank, install the pistons on the rods, have them put it together, and check the oil pressure.
maybe a shade less. but that would be fair with having it done Right, and giving room for odd parts, and bolts.
