Ok...so due to my anal-retentiveness and hoarder skills, I have been able to catalogue my expenses into an Excel spreadsheet and come up with a total on this.
I'm really sad to see how much it was LOL
Recall I had alot of spare parts on the shelf (oil pans, chain/guides/tensioner, oil stand, water pump, etc.). So basically I just paid for any machining to the block and crank I couldnt do myself and the upgrades/parts from either the dealer (pistons, gaskets, etc) or aftermarket vendor (rods, head/cams/gears, scraper, etc)....Im not including any assembly costs or minor stuff like RTV, assembly lube, etc.
Anyone wanna venture a guess?
