Are you saying you paid for the short block? That it wasn't covered under warranty?

$347 for the 30,000 mile check. WOW! My service supervisor told me it would cost me $100 to change the plugs so I told him I'd do it myself. I don't need an air filter because I have an intake. The rest of the inspecting tie rods and boots, the replacing the pcv air filter and adjusting the generator tension belt should cost me $100 or less of which half of that will be for my oil change with Castrol Syntec. I deal with the same guy all of the time. Last Saturday when we picked up my wife's '01 (catalytic converter failure fixed for free under warranty) we went over the 30k checkup in the owner's manual and arrived at that estimate.
