That is pretty much the going rate, fair price but nothing special. Mark (cutlassefi) is working with some now, might want to check his price first.

I've been wrenching for years, and always found it's just better dealing with a local shop, that knows what they're doing. While really not a hard fast rule, never bought anything on e-bay, and never plan to. When it comes to engine building, you're really wanting to be in the loop on what's going on. Also, careful with intake height, as maybe run into hood clearance problems there.
