I've been getting a few verbal estimates and doing some searching on costs for rebuilding the type4. It seems like the magic number is right around 10k for a good quality complete rebuild, adding a few goodies like head work, cam, etc. I know it's a very broad subject and there's a lot of contributing factors on what impacts the overall price but I'm just looking for a ballpark for right now. I can't afford a Raby build but also don't want something I can't rely on. Thanks for the input.

It's not a cheap date to be sure, taking your time is a good bet
