These guys seem like serious pros.

The engine in my dad's car has lost compression in one cylinder, probably scoring on the cylinder wall. We're considering getting it rebuilt, can you pm with what kind of costs I'm looking at from these guys? Specifically the block, but might as well tell me everything just in case

PM sent. Remember these guys don't do OEM stuff.
