How about a freshly machined block?

Damn waste...

At one point they were looking for 3500 for it, but that was like 5 years ago.
I could hastle him again about it if you're at all interested....
They were copying a book build of some sort. Kinda of a father-son progect that never was finished.

I am pretty sure the BBC bottom end wouldn't fit under the LS1 heads unless he used some LT1 exhaust manifolds...

Minor detail lol

Hey ryan, is your block and crank still good? Why not just rebuild your bottom end with decent parts, probably almost come out the same price in the long run and then you'll have a decent bottom end to handle some power?

I got to thinking and then I realized he just needed to get some custom headers made:
