I am in the process of doing a B engine (for my steel wheeled, war time B) right now, so I can give you some figures.
My prices:
Sleeve, piston & ring kit - $380
Complete gasket set - $60
Valve train kit - $110
Rod bearings - $65
Main bearings - $100
Shims (rods & mains) $50
There was also some shipping costs on most parts.
My crankshaft (out of a combine engine) miked out perfect with standard bearings, so I had no machining on it.
I don't have a price on just the machine work, since I sent a D-17 head at the same time, but I had the block, head and D-17 head hot tanked, the block decked, head and manifold resurfaced and new valve train installed with new seats, plus the work on the D-17 head and total machine work was $550.
I got all my parts from Jim Danforth at OK Tractor, except the valve assembly and sleeves, pistons and rings that I already had .
My guess is somewhere in the range of $1100, but again, my crankshaft didn't need machining, which saved me some money.
