Not Ranked
Talked to the builder and worked out some of the issues (revised to 0.040" over, AFR heads, hydraulic lifters). I still have to work out some numbers before this is going to make sense. 10 hours for machine work on the block alone sounds reasonable. 20 hours for engine assembly sounds a bit "long". That leaves 5 hours of quote for working the DART heads (porting, polishing, et cetera).
Hhmmm. How many hours should I expect a competent builder to spend putting together a long block assembly?
Any builders want to pipe in?
More to think about, more numbers to crunch...
