Not really sure why you are looking for O/.H pricing if Bottom end passes inspection. Sound like you are asking about top O/H.?? To fully O/H the engine some where around $12,000. Top buy used Jugs and have them O/H Willie Topken has a set he was telling me he want to sell. 775-338-5717 or This email address is being protected from spambots.

Here's the spec. Maximum allowable oil burn is 0.4 quart per hour, so I guess that works out to a quart every 2.5 hours.

According to Continental, the maximum allowable oil consumption rate is a quart every 2.8 hours. If I can find it, I’ll post the bulletin in this thread. My C85 has 1600+ hours on it and uses a quart every 10-12 hours. It could be your burning oil in the jugs. How are your compressions?
