to re bore the motor it will cost you around $200. to deck the motor around 50 to acid dip it clean also around50. this is ok if the motor hasnt been rooted by the pistons then you will need a new block. other questions to consider are have the pistons that blew hit the head at all? if they have youre heads probably now screwed. if not it all good. and also are you rods still ok. pistons will probably be in the range f $250 to $600 depending what you want and rings about $140. these prices are all from my past experiences building motors but have never worked on M motors before.

best bet take the motor out (if its not already) take the head off (if its not already) and take it to an engine machiner so they can tell exactly what you need to do.
