$500 would be a great deal.... I paid 1100.00 to have it done at inline pro... Also when we had JG do it, it was right around $1000.00.. This of course included the sleeves and machine work on the block... Also be careful who you let do it. I have seen more than one that had sleeve shrinkage...

Ive seen LS blocks go into the 500-550 range stock sleeves. But Golden Eagle usually runs around $1000.

"whats sleeve shrinkage"

Its when the sleeves actually "sink" slightly making the surface uneven..This usually comes into play when they aren't installed correctly...

I once had snowmobile sleeves cut down and installed into a LS block... this was the brain child of the guy who owned a shop in Goldsboro NC... Worked out great.. Just something to think about...
