Rebuilt short block. March 24, 2006, 09:25:04 PM Has anyone heard about Prime Performance short blocks or seen them on Ebay? I searched on "ford short block." They're like $700 plus shipping and it sounds like a nice engine. Anyone know whether this is a reputable company? How much does rebuilding a short block usually cost? Quote Selected
Rebuilt short block. Reply #1 – March 25, 2006, 02:15:45 AM I'm sure that $700 gets you a cast crank & hypereutectic pistons too...Honestly if you have all the parts for the short block, I can't see why a basic re-ring job would cost more than $300-400. Quote Selected
Rebuilt short block. Reply #2 – March 25, 2006, 07:43:52 PM Yep, my engine is complete and has about 150,000 miles on it and I'd like the rebuild to last as long as I have the car, and I don't plan on selling it. With that many miles on all the parts, and looking to get around 300 HP out of it, do you think I should get new rods or crank? Thanks! Quote Selected
