Ritter disaster

My friend just rec’d his MR1 Pontiac block.

Well see how much it costs to make it usable.

None of the aftermarket blocks I’ve used needed anywhere near $3000 worth of machining to make them usable.

I wonder what a “ready to assemble” Dart SHP block would cost from Reher-Morrison.

To put it in perspective......
You can buy a 434” sbc shortblock built with a Dart Little M block, Scat crank and rods, Wiseco pistons, total seal rings, clevite bearings, assembled....... for $5300 from Shafiroff.
