buy a crate motor.. just make sure the motor is for ls1. it seems like many people are going with either 6.0l iron block or the new ls2 for weight difference.. its your choice.. good luck

HOW DID YOU BLOW IT? Did you just spin bearing? DID A VALVE DROP AND MESS UP YOUR HEADS, THE PISTONS, AND THE BLOCK? Why not just go with a shortblock and just transfer things like your intake and heads over (providing they are okay) to the new block.
