Default Ls2 block

A friend of mine with a LSX motor went south! We pulled the heads to find block split in #1 cylinder with less than 1000 miles. He is looking for a Ls2 block now so if any of you know where I/ he can find one let me know. Thanks

Chad is a good person to contact when looking for LS parts. He always has something laying around or knows of someone who does.

I've seen at least two in the Classifieds. I think they wanted $750 each.

Old block should get warrantied out. If so, it will be for sale. If I don't buy it it will get posted here. The block is not repairable at all.
