Default looking for a short block

Just as it states.Its either a short block or rebuilding it. I can do either and I would prefer the more cost effective way. Any ideas?

3000 for a short block is a great price unless you pice one together your self, but you'll only save a few bucks.

We can put together a budget shortblock for you. Want to go forged rods/pistons or totally stock? Also, will we be using your crank/block?
