Default How much to rebuild my block

i was wondering how much it would cost to rebuild my block....rods/bearings, turn crank if need be, im only looking to fix, so i can trade in, what do you guys think im looking at price wise? The block is still in the car so the motor would have to be pulled...what do you guys think?

Probably cheaper to pick up a used Ls1 in the for sale section & swap motors if your just gonna trade it in.

I'm with big mike on that one. Kind of wish I would have done that instead of doing a forged short block. Kind of over the car after all this money is going out the window.

Just looked at your sig and if thats the motor in the car def take it out and sell it separate. Won't get anything close to what you put in it back.

i have all my stock stuff, so i was just going to swap it back to stock, however throwing a cheap motor would probably be best
