Ok I am sure this has been covered but being new to the site I wanted to know if anyone could offer some suggestions on finding a replacement for my 8BA block. I just heard back from the machine shop and I have a freeze crack problem down low. I want to find a decent or better than new block. Anyone have any resources to share?

I also wanted to contact Motor City Speed Equipment but can't seem to find contact info. Thanks fo the help

I know you are in NC but there is a guy in Albuquerque, NM named Joe Abin(who has written several books on flatties) who owns roadrunner engineering(specializing in blowers), he has several 8BA blocks that have been magnafluxed and xrayed. I believe he wants $400.00 each for them.
