[QUOTE="mna0121, post: 412020, member: 2868"] I pretty much have every receipt for the build but haven't added them up, I probably do not want to know that! If you pay someone to assemble the parts you buy it is cheaper to buy a crate engine. The rub is prices are listed for a basic combination but once you add this and add that the price goes way up in a hurry so make sure you compare the parts you want with the parts the manufacture offers. Texas speed is a good site to compare builds with. I will get some numbers later when I can get them added up. I suppose others would like to know also. I just came in from the barn. Removed #5and 7 plug turned it over to see if water was on top of the piston, there was not. The manifold was removed so I could get a better look at the stud. The water is coming from under the nut/ washer. I did not turn the pump back on but after turning it over it started leaking around the stud. This indicates pressure is on the water and I noticed water had dripped on the floor further toward the front of the engine. I rule out the gasket hoping the head is cracked. I just didn't want to fool with it today but I am going to have to at least remove that head. [/QUOTE]
