Mine cost $250 for a semi heavy duty (same as a heavy duty parts wise but a little less clamping pressure for the street so its easier to drive).

My advice would be to bore the g180 out to 2L and fit 2L pistons. ACL gear will be fine.
This basically gives you a 2L bottom end, the g180's are easier to find and rev a litte nicer.

The $798 price seems more realistic. Seals are not cheap.
Door seals can be bought from clark rubber by the metre, it works out to about under $40 per door. |
