Guys,

I work for Rockauto and noticed they carry a 7mgte long block.

here is the link

http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php?carcode=1278570&parttype=5240

I know the product has a warranty and Ill take a look at how long it is for once I get to work today.

EDIT: here is the warranty info - PROFormance Engines 36 month/100,000 mile (12 month/36,000 mile commercial applications); limited parts & labor. Warranty only covers engines shipped to the continental United States. Alaska and Puerto Rico included. $125 re-stocking fee for return of new engines.

Here is the Proformance website - http://www.goppt.com:8080/index.html

Just something for people to keep in mind as an option when they spin a bearing etc. with their motors and are trying to determine which method they would like to use to get their car back on the road

I was just throwing the option out there. I would try to return an engine like that, but I suppose that would be extremely hard to figure that out when the head is already installed...

I figured some people on a budget might like the 3 year 100,000 mile warranty part of it.

Build your own, or find a very reputable person to do it for you.

I've rebuilt many engines for people over the years.

brand new a block is 2gs or you could rebuild which is way cheaper. but that is an option,
