$600.00 is a good price. You would put $350.00 into machine work alone if you were to duplicate it. Than add in the parts. As for the RPM band, that is as simple as a cam change. If he has it set up for high RPM, you can ask him how the cam was installed. (Where it was degreed in) You may be abe to change the installed location enough to make it work for you, but I doubt it. A cam change is cheap and easy.
