I just went throught the same thing... it is nearly impossible to get a long block at a decent price shipped here to Louisiana...

I currently have my engine at the machine shop (Shreves Automotive in Kenner talk to Donny) and putting new pistons (wiseco), rods(eagle) and bearings in. Also they are doing a valve job on the head.

The cost is right at 2k for all of it which is close to what a long block would cost with shipping if you can get one. Plus now I know what the engine is and didnt get a long block from someone that may have issues itself.

Arent you an GLRace? In Madisonville? Im in Slidell. I left you a message on GLrace. if your the guy with the Ka stuff for sale.. I know a guy that wants to turbo a KA and may be interested in some of your parts.

I was saying that he is going to turbo a KA so he might be interested in some of the parts you had for sale. I left you his number on GLrace.... His name is Freddie...

As soon as I get my Zenki back together and running I will swing by and show you my car and check your car out.
