Will be a fair bit cheaper doing it yourself. Try www.allittmotorsport.co.uk (http://www.allittmotorsport.co.uk) for parts especially if you need pistons.

A crank grind will be about 100 quid, not sure about the rest of the parts.

i rebuilt mine for about 400 including a replacement crankshaft from some place near winchester. i had new bigends, main bearings, oil pump, crank, rings, and a couple of months before i fitted new camshaft kit.

just buy the saloon the enigne is in that im trying to find it again apparently some 6ft 4 black man has it. im suprised he can fit in it

do you know for sure if you need a crank regrind.... otherwise its just a polish and reassemble job.

sling ARP rod bolts while you are in there. Maybe deseam the rods and get them shot peened etc while you are in there since if you want to mod it later its ready or you can sell.
