So Keith, what happen with the rods? You going to build this short block ?

Well,i am still getting the rods and everything else with it,I'm getting a 40 over block ,40 over mahaul race casts,carrillos,3388 socal,main;s keyed everything,bacicly a built short block,it needs a new oil pump and bearings.I am sooo frickin happy this is going to happen but getting this thing home is the bottle neck.I really need some help with this one,After paying for the block I cant afford a shipping company to bring it home so I think this is the next bets thing.What do you think?

He found copper flakes in the oil after a change and suspects the oil pump let go and took the bearings out and was then parked for 2 yrs,He wants to drive his truck so it went back to stock and I am getting the block.As far as the crank I wont know until I tear down but if it needs one mine is at the machine shop getting keyed,if it doesn't need one then I have a spare.I am getting a deal of a lifetime and am vibrating,cant believe its all coming together but will have to wait until its in my truck before I start planning.

Good call on starting a thread Keith I hadn't thought of that. Gotta love the duramax community. I am the one selling the built shortblock for those who are questioning. I am just glad its going to go to a home that can finish what I started. I looked into the passport thing, but we are looking at 6-8 weeks for that to happen.

Rob, I can get the motor to the border no problem. I'd acutally like to see niagra falls as I havent been there since a kid so its a damn good excuse to get up there.

Inform yourself before you purchase that "used"motor as they will ask you all kinds of questions. Check serial #'s and make sure you have an invoice with it. Scrap yard invoice. Just some legit proof. And your good to go.
