I have one, but it's prized. $100 plus the shipping and I'd do it. Been through the parts washer 4 years ago and sat on the shelf ever since. Block, crank, girdle.

You do NOT want a B18A block, sleeves are junk.

Only B18C1/5 have girdles. LS don't rev that high, and B16 are poorly designed junk engines.

a 30 dollar block would be sweet if one is in decent shape and had the caps. let me know a b18b is preferable
