what would one expect to spend on a top end and a complete motor for say a Dyna?

Evo or TC ??? New H-D crate engine costs approx. $3500.00 - $4000.00 installed . Top end rebuild minimum about $500.00 , max with boring etc. about $700.00 . These prices are dependent on shop labor rates of course . An Inde. can save ya about 25 - 30 % .
Also the MoCo engine Reman. program can save you some money versus the new crate engine .

Depends on what it needs, or what condition it was in, when it came in.

Like Schmidty said: Lots-O-variables.

What pistons?

Boring?

Gasket brand. (OEM VS JAMES)

Do the jug bases need to be re-trued?

Are the guides good?

Are the rocker shaft bushings worn?

Replacing OEM pushrods with adjustable?

Agreed , I mean if the top end is totally worn out and everything needs to be replaced or reconditioned he could expect to spend upwards of $1000.00 for the top end alone . That's where the Reman. prices start to look reasonable especially considering the warranty that comes with the Reman. .
