ol' slant is dead... need help!

I'll just pay the 2500 then cause I REALLY miss driving the dart!!
$2500 is to have your engine rebuilt, correct?

One concern is how they will re-use a block with a "spun bearing". Long ago (1994?), I exchanged my worn slant for a rebuilt long block at a big shop in Calabasas, CA. The receiving guy quickly removed the crankshaft on my old engine and checked for spun bearings. I understood that if even one had spun, the block was useless to them and I would have to pay the core charge.
