Not a Packard question - but you all are experienced and I ask for your opinions. Have another car - 63 Ford Thundebird - removed engine and sending for rebuild (390 FE engine).
What parts are "typically" replaced ? I have a couple quotes.
Here's a link for one quote for $2,500 - replacing pistons, rings, main/camshaft/rod bearings, oil pump, freeze plugs.

Anybody else have other recent pricings for rebuilds ? Obviously pricing varies by part of country and what's done.
$2,500 seems high for rebuild not replacing camshaft... Thanks.
