Not many places offer a drop in turn key engine, maybe a long block that you use your oil pan, dist,intake, exhaust. If this is the case your looking at about 13-17 book time hours, most shops charge any where from $65 to $100 a book hour. Most of the time its best to find a GOOD mechanic / not a hacker, and he would charge maybe $500.
