The engine is still sitting on the stand and has not been put in a car or started. I'm fairly certain that you would not come close in price I'm asking with the amount of work that was done to this motor and what the cost of the rotating assembly costs are. The engine shop build sheet will come with the motor if there is any question to what I had done to it.
