How much should I charge for polishing the bottem end from a Quadzilla?

[quadracer2cool4u]

Sombody would like me to polish the bottem end of a Quadzilla engine for him(pics below). I was thinking to charge $300. I dont want to over or under charge him, so let me know what you think I should charge. The only covers I can do on the bench polisher are the stator, clutch and water pump cover. The center cases I'll have to do with a die grinder. I can't take the cylinder off, so that will make it harder. My main concern is the case by the stator cover, has alot of nooks and cranies. How long would it take you to polish it? Here are some pics of a Quadzilla engine.

i personally wouldn't do it for $300, i'd say $400 for the entire thing

So he wants you to to strip and polish it without taking it apart? You can possibly seal it up, but I would absolutely give him a disclaimer so you're not responsible if and when the engine seizes up from grinding dust.

As far as price you're in the ballpark.

same here for the disclaimer, i think it s more of a (when) then a (if)the motor seizes!

for the price i would go closer to the 400$ for the extra trouble of working on something all assembled

He just wants me to polish the bottem end, not the cylinder or cylinder head. I think I'll charge him $350. Thanks for the replys!!!!
