Default LS2 Block Value?

Does a LS2 block with a cracked sleeve have any value other than at a scrap metal recycler?

You might be able to get 50 out of it if someone is close to you doing an engine swap and they want to use it as a mockup. Other than that... Let me know cuz I have a ls1 with a cracked sleeve.

As long as that is the only problem, it could have great value to someone looking to build a sleeved motor. The same goes for the LS1 if it is a true LS1 block and not the LS6 block. If you find someone looking to send one off for sleeving, it could be worth a couple hundred bucks.

mock up value is all that it is good for-

how much would it be worth if it were good

seen a l92 b/new block go on ebay 2 weeks ago for 550 or 650 us-from bowman motorsports-

the ls2 could not be worth more then that if it were good???

LS2 blocks run about $900 new. As I stated above, if someone was looking to sleeve a motor, it could go for $200 or so.
