I don't know...you get an almost new long black for about 500, rods are 1200, pistons about 700, do head work yourself, and maybe 400 machine shop work.
That's only 2800 and you have a longblock...although then you gotta get gaskets and bearings.
I got my 3L for 350 shipped to me. So about 3000 for everything plus or minus.
