Default Forged shortblock or rotating assembly wanted

As it says in the title I'm looking to buy a short block with forged internals or just the forged rotating assembly. Of course this is a budget build so I am looking in the $2500 and less range. Let me know what you have and if you are interested in any partial trades for stuff also or just cash. I'm in MO.

Oh ya I guess that would help. LSX. Might even just be looking for a set of rods and pistons stock stroke and 3.895 bore.

If anybody is interested, I'd trade my 87 trans am, 5 speed, tune port, t-top car with 57,000 miles on it with a clear title for an lsx shortblock or longblock . The car will need paint but runs awesome. Really need to get an engine going for my convt.
