Oh well....

doesn't look like my block is going to be fixable, have 1 more option to try and failing that I think I am going to part it out. Since I am out of work next week I can't afford to have it fixed professionally and I certainly can't afford to rebuild it. Going to mull it over on my last trip but I am getting sick of the bull, probably swap in a stock motor and sell mine for parts. Either way that is probably it for this season, another year in the garage.
