K20a2 Longblock

alright for future reference my friend is sellin his rsx-s block that he will hold for me until i have the money..... Now it might just be the longblock cause he is using the altenator etc and with the parts he doesnt use he will add with the longblock. Now i was wondering how much would u pay for the rsx-s block? It has 50,000 miles on it but i plan to keep it aside and build it for boost so any help would be great

i would rather just get the whole thing, it will cost too much in the future to get all the little peices... trust me... and all the wasted time spent

Reason why is i am gonna prob save and go all out on this setup so i would rather buy new stuff except for the block and head which i can build up. Well i talked to him and he said 600 for the longblock? That sound good?

do u know what a long block is, its the block and the head together, a short block is without the head. if hes giving u the long block for 600 bucks thats a steal

well if you do get it, make sure it comes with all the sensors, especially on the TB and block, and the wire harness. that sounds like a price thats tooo good

stl01civic is an unknown quantity at this point
I think it is a great deal. Consider the a2 head is about 4-500 itself.

sounds like block only, no head. trans with that? sounding like another 24/20 frank like you know who ^

long block is usually the engine and trans, and a short block is just a head and bottom end - at least thats what it is when speaking of american hoopties.

yeah i think its the complete block, except no tranny, head, etc. Sorry for saying it wrong. I guess its the short block so is that still a good price? Yeah it does come with all the sensors, and ill ask him if he will include the wire harness. Thanks for the help
