dude, what are you planning to buy that you can afford to do an engine rebuild, but can't afford to buy a new engine?

Abacus is definitely the way to go, but you should really buy everything they will need: pistons, rods, rod bolts, etc... before you take it to them. They do an excellent job, but an engine rebuild can be almost as much as a new engine, thats why I asked.

Cost of my LS-$350
Cost of building my bottom end $1200
Cost of the head with installed dual valve springs, milled, and mild port and polish $300
All the crap I had to buy before hand just to get it over there $800

See where this is going?
