I'm looking into buy shortblocks (or even complete motors) to rebuild and sell.
What I'm wondering is how big of a demand is there for these motors and what are yall willing to pay.
Basically ill be rehoning the cylinders, and installing all new rings and bearings.
Making it basically a brand new shortblock.
I'll be doing anything from a mustang 4.6 to a lq9
All responses are appreciated!

without a name brand and a warranty, your gonna have a VERY hard time selling any shortblocks

Or lots of references, or your own exceptionally fast car that doesn't blow up.

Yeah I realized that shortly after I posted this.
It was just a thought.
Try and make a little money.

build a couple and start off at a very min markup. Thats how good things get started if your willing to crawl before you walk and offer a great product then only you can decide how far things will go.

However just keep in mind untill you get some products into some cars to show your value then there will probably be alot more work then profit. But do it and do it right and earn a reputation and who knows
The world is full of dreamers,doers and what most people are doubters. Choose which one you wanna be.

I like the idea but just remember re-ringing and new bearings do not make it "basically a new short block" Not trying to beat you up but your not gonna be able to bull **** people on here.
