Going to have a 340 built this winter, and I'm wondering about how much I should expect to pay for labor.
Just for a basic rebuild on both block and heads... will be somewhat mild, just a little better than stock. Not over 400hp once done... better airflow, headers, etc will go toward this end.
If I buy something like the RPM Master Engine Kit:

(Yes, I will talk to the builder before ordering anything), and assuming nothing goes wrong unexpectedly, how much should it cost to be tanked and magnafluxed then built up... probably some porting done or whatever to make it all match and flow nice? It's a nice, clean-looking '69 block with '70 X heads.
Also, can anyone recommend someone in or near the Milwaukee area to do this?
Thanks.
