theres a builder local to me who specializes in pontiacs and has an ad in hpp called len williams machine in tulsa who comes pretty close to what those remaned 455s sell for. i think 3k gets the shortblock but garuanteed better than a remaned jobber plus there is no core charge. might cost just a few bucks more but in the end you have a much better motor. in any case id spend a few bucks more and use a pontiac builder and have piece of mind, or spen a few bucks less and give it a shot yourself, get a book with all the specs and go for it
