John, I bought an 01 HOT engine with about 15K miles for $1,200. Figure that a qualified indie mechanic might charge anywhere from $65 to 75 per hour for labor, and I've been quoted a rough figure of 16 to 20 hours for an installation (depends on what accessories are still with the engine, whether the wiring harness is intact, etc.)
That quoted price of $8,000 is valid only if they're replacing the pistins with platinum ones. RUN, don't walk, away from that dealer.
