Default What to do with old block?

Well I blew my ls1 and already replaced it with an ls2, I got my block sitting around, what should I do with it? I spun a bearing in it. I was thinking about throwing it in a dune buggy down the way, is there any dirt cheap ways to rebuild an engine or do you pretty much have to go all out?

I might just make it into a table, but what are my other options?

Same idea I have for mine because I don't want to pay to have a new sleeve put in it
