machine shop prices

What is a fair price for all new crank and cam bearings, head inspection/milling, and cylinder wall inspection/honing. I am going to be calling some places within the week and would like to have idea if their prices are fair or not.
thanks

Re: machine shop prices

Not at all the same thing as you are looking at, but similar.

I just had my block done / balanced / assymbled for $1047....
If you take them the bare block...
Bearings should be cheap (labor) shouldnt be much at all... less than $100?
inspect/mill heads < $100, hone... $100? I would say everything should be well under $300 if you take it all apart and nothing goes wrong.

At the same time.... if you are just replacing the bearings you should have the crank checked/polished... lots more to do

Don't be afraid, just go/call one and explain what you need. They will give you an estimate.
