Around $3000.00 for the block.

Bore, hone $300.00

line hone $150.00

deck $150.00

All machine shops have different rates so it's hard to say what the out the door price is. I can tell you I spent quit a bit to have the cam tunnel and lifter bore bushings done but I beleave it's well worth the money for what I'm trying to do.
If you have a shop that can diamond hone your block it's not cheep but there is a difference on what you get.
