Alrighty guys, that time in a 6GC life to go ahead and do an engine rebuild. Need some ideas for how much one may cost, i am assuming around 3k or so. I'm just gonna keep it simple.
I did call a couple companies, one company says that they work for NASCAR and would mod out the engine to an extreme... but they want 6k. I can't remember the details one what they said they would do, i should have a pen and paper next time heh. Anyway. Ideas people? Thanks !

You say you don't understand how we go dumb, but have you ever been where i'm from?

I went to several local shops for my 5sfe rebuild too. The reputable builders around here wanted $2300 on the low side up to $4200 on the high side for "just the rebuild" to stock. No performance upgrades or performance machine work. How do you get $800?? I wish I had that price.

Plus...I got 173,000 miles. Car runs perfect but I blow smoke at start up...(bad valve stem seals)...anyway how confident would you be in my engine block not having to be rebuilt cause they last long? How long is that?
