    I bought a 68 motor from eBay for about 800 dollars it needed rebuilding. Id just add the rebuild cost to that. Do you have the frame mounts to the 430 because I need a set?

    was this a basic "as stock" rebuild or a hop up?

    if hopped up, what's the cam?

    who did the rebuild?

    are they Buick rebuilders?

    what did they rebuild the bearing clearances too?

    did they make any of the oiling system mods? did they even know that a performance built Buick ( from a v6 to a big block 455, they all have the same basic oiling system ) ought to have mods done?
