I’m just catching up on this thread but a guy who charges $90 around here will starve and close. To get a crank done well here (and I know the best guy around here) is a $300 proposition. That’s not stroke corrected and indexed... that’s cleaned, nagged, turned, and polished. Nothing fancy.
In regard to PRHs comments on streetable power- I’m with him. I consider how often the engine will be in an rpm range for a street car with mild gearing. The car willidle and be under 4K for the vast, VAST majority of its life do power over 5k in not a concern. I think this gets way over-thought by many these days.
