Probably the wrong thing to post on a mustang site, but anyone have a chevy 350 lying around?

What a great weekend. Driving down I-5, the rod starts knocking. Then louder, and louder, and then sure enough, I threw it out. Thought I could limp it home.

The trail of oil leading to my truck when the tow truck dumped it.

This is actually a pretty small hole, I've seen bigger, but it was only going about 1500 rpm when it blew. That makes two vehicles down this weekend!!
 
What are you looking to spend?
My friend is selling a BRAND NEW ZZ4 small block with NEW Trick Flow heads on Ebay right now. Even has dry sump setup.
Item number: 7985682854

Starting bid is $3,500.
 
Jeff, I may hit ya up on that. I havent decided whether I want to buy a crapper off craigslist and rebuild it, or get something thats already done. Depends on how much time I have coming up. I know I am not going to go with anything crazy, just a mild block with stock cam and heads, 9:1s, etc. I am more focused on spending money and time making the mustang better right now.
 
Shoot me a PM with what you have to work with (year of engine/truck, mods, etc) and I will put in a call to see what he has/can do. Also let me know what you want out of it, much easier to build it once than several times. He built a long block 350 carb to pan for a friend for little more than what most get for a short block.
