I dont think your problem is the people who dont offer you enough for your time, but your failure to realize that you over paid for parts and labor. You can easily get those parts and machine work/sleeves for under $3,000. If you were smart you would keep the block and use it with a nice turbo set-up, or maybe post it somewhere else than vadriven or ebay. Good luck with your sale.

Its nice stuff, but I dont see too many people on here paying that much for it.
