Default WTB: Replacement block for blown ls1

After having experienced a failed oil pump on my ls1, my cylinders 1,3,5, and 7 are gone. I'm looking for a new block and forged pistons, but would also be interested in forged lsx blocks as an upgrade(low milage). I'm located in central Texas and would be willing to pay shipping if the price is right!

I'm right down the road from you. Send me a PM if you need some help finding a motor local or someone to build it for you that's local as well.

Would'nt that need an oil sump pump? I'm not sure it would work without serious modification.

Sounds like it's already been converted to wet sump for you, along with the 24tooth reluctor and shorter crank snout...

Thanks for the input... any serious help would be greatly appreciated. As for douchy comments mocking my obvious imperfect knowlage of motors: you can go be an unhelpful ******* elsewhere.
