IMO, by the time you start from scratch rebuilding a 90 something year old block with re-bore, repour and machine the bearings, sleeve the cam shaft tunnel etc, you have spent not far short of that anyway and you've still only got 3 main bearings and 90+ years of fatigue in the crank and rods. Money well spent in my book.
The $3,900 includes the optional lightened flywheel.
