Got mine done for around £1900.
But, if you don't shop around, you may end up paying £3500+!

New Crank
New Big Ends
New Mains
1 2nd hand sti conrod
1 2nd hand crank case bolt
Full gasket set
Uprated RCM oil pump
Second hand Modine oil cooler (one from head gasket failure engine)
Engine oil
Filter
Coolant
Labour
