Default WTB AP1 block.

Hey guys, So I just picked up a short block in pretty bad condition thinking I could just bore it and hone it. Then I learned about FRM and our special sleeves and basically I'm stuck.
I know about going the OEM oversized pistons and bore it to .25( which is the limit of course) way...but my scratches are probably too deep for that.
So is either I can get a good short block in here, or I have to sleeve the current block I have. Anyone got a good short block? Thanks


p.s. If I can't find a good short block, what sleeves can I get using the OEM psitons?

^ I think anywhere in Alaska would be closer than having to buy from the lower 48. But OP, you can get dry sleeve inserts which will run about 5-600 for parts and labor. If you go this route, you can use the other 4-500 for a set of forged aftermarket pistons and keep the stock rods versus getting the darton MID sleeves (11-$1200). Good luck!
