Cool deal, I'm looking forward to the build...my LQ9 is still sitting in my father's shop along with my WCCH StageII's, been like 3 years now...hey, now that I think about it, my daughter's turning 3 in August, now I remember why I stopped building it lol.

But seriously, nice score, hope that cylinder cleans up good and all goes smoothly...do you have a local engine shop in mind or are you still looking? If you're willing to ship it, I've heard great things about Rex and WCCH

well **** guys, the block is busted, had it jacked up on the hoist getting ready to put it in my truck, when my brother noticed saw pin hole of day light shining in the engine, (he is fukn eagle eyes,) and sure enough there was a hole, by the second main cap bolt (the small 10mms buy the oil pan), pushed on it with my finger and out popped a piece of the block larger than a 50 cent piece, its a sad day
