I have an ls3 block with a scratch on one cylinder from a dropped valve. Block was purchased brand new and had less than 20 miles on it.

Finding an LS2 block that's buildable will most likely be expensive if not very hard to find.. A re-sleeved Gen 4 aluminum 5.3 block may be your best bet these days.
