Double ugly, you leave almost all the important details off the list.
Because the term "CJ" is so readily tossed around these days you must provide casting numbers to verify what you have. Block casing number, Crank casting number, Head casting numbers, carb list number. You say Edelbrock aluminum intake...which intake. Performer, Performer RPM, Victor, and so on. You say Holley carb...it this an original 735cfm Holley or any number of other aftermarket Holley carbs that could be bolted on? What is the compression ratio? What pistons are in the holes and what style/material are they? What valve train has been installed, springs, retainers, valves and so on. Any other modifications been done to the engine during the rebuild? When you ask the question "how much" the price can vary wildly depending on the exact details of the finished build, and who did the building. I can show you two identical looking 428 CJ's that vary in price by more than $7000 for the finished product, and vary in output by almost the same margin. Give us some more details and we can help you get close on an asking price. Thanks and good luck.
