Those look like real parts to me.  2 sets pf pink rods? 

Lots of money for a partial core but maybe thats what they go for these days?

I agree; but it does seem to be combination of 'lightly used' factory parts, plus NOS replacements for some of the rods (which spun bearings)..  usually that affects the crankshaft also.. Did they say anything about that??   If I owned the matching car with the CE engine in it, it would probably be worth the $$ to put the original short block back in it..??

0.010/0.010" wouldn't bother me re the crank, but you lose the tufftride...
