I'll ask them for you, I had my belt and cover done at a different place thou, this was my engine when I got it, I stripped it down to bare block, replaced everything internallyand gave a clean n paint etc.. Was expensive but worth it in the end! I'd just recommend taking time on it really, took me a good 6 months to do mine
