    Just heads up, bare long blocks, like this, still require a lot of work/parts/gaskets to be ready for install. Those extras could easily add another $500-$1000 on top of "engine swap" price.

    And another point, they say that crank shafts are "ground and polished". Well... That is where you really need to know and trust your engine builder... I would NEVER grind a crank if didn't need it and most can get by with simple polish job. It is possible that they don't automatically grind them ether (but used it as boiler plate), however, when they say stuff like that, it makes me question them...
