Better be clear with the shop about what you mean by "blueprint rebuild".

"Blueprinting" means different things to different people.

To me, it means CNC machining so that EVERYTHING is in the correct locations--which can mean re-locating the lifter bores, cam tunnel, etc. In general, it would mean correcting the sloppy machine work done by the factory on most every machined surface. You are looking at LOTS of money for that.

I have the impression that you want a stock-type rebuild, done to factory specs and using factory tolerances. I would say that $3500 seems low even for that, but again I'm guessing that you want a turn-key engine, sitting on a pallet ready to install.
