ok sorry for starting a new post but i hate having to keep scrolling down when it changes to a new topic but
i want to get a new bottom end/long block
the piston was fried and the driver side bank look toasted as well
it has 140k on it and as far as the crank bearings and cam all that ****
i really dont want to just throw another piston where the bad one was
the motor was pretty fine had good oil pressure the block itsleve is perfect
so should i pay to get a stock rebuild done where they bore it and new pistons and all that **** with arps and good new head gaskets
or should i buy that long block from 68 nasty z i think for around high 3k
but thats a roller setup and ported good heads all that
i just want to do it and not look back but than again i want to get only what is needed and not over kill and not spend an arm and a leg
same time im going to do the trans so its gonna be sitting
can you guys give me some suggestions on my situation and what i should do or what do i need? thank you
