I've been out of the V6 scene for a while. Where can I find a reasonably priced longblock for my 00 3.8? $4k ain't cutting the mustard. Just looking for a mild rebuild.

Re: Built longblock
intense has there 3000$ short block with a built bottom end! but thats a bit pricey.
im not sure about any other companies, but you could always check ebay. last i checked they had a few complete 3800's for less than a grand. minus wiring harness, ecu, and what not.
you could also have someone build you one and then buy it from em! i need to spend another 100$ and ive got my bottom end built then its time to wait for PP on the heads and intakes.

Re: Built longblock
There's a couple of complete engines on ebay right now for $500... 200$ for freight... then build it yourself... for 3.5 grand you can have it stroked and built for the same price as the intense block...

Re: Built longblock
Stock block, stock crank, L32 (series 3 3.8) rods and pistons, rings, bearings, arp rod bolts. Not looking for anything exotic. My block is shot, 4 rods snapped and exited through the block and oil pan. Oh yeah, need an oil pan.<a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.fullthrottlev6.com</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.chitownracing.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.chitownracing.com</a>

Re: Built longblock
I bit and bought a junkyard engine. I need a car ASAP. I may still be interested in your stuff for the right price. Is it assembled?<a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.fullthrottlev6.com</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.chitownracing.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.chitownracing.com</a>
