ok, i blew the bottom end in my car again but this time it was fully rebuilt crank pistons rods bearing all new gaskets ect.... there wasnt even 500 miles on it. pretty much all i wanna know is does anyone know where i can get an already assembled 7 bolt block ready to bolt in? it can be used or new . from a person or store doesnt matter! i just need to get the car on the road. i would like to get a 6 bolt but then you gotta deal with the flywheel , cas sensor, bla bla bla and money is kinda an issue right now . any help would be great thanks!

Except for Magnus, I dont see anywhere in any of the links you provided to get a rebuilt 7-bolt block. Maybe Im just missing it?
You're mostly right, sorry, but FFWD will do a 7 bolt, Buschur will put it together for you. and Turbo Garage is just a place to get great rebuild stuff. Not many places do 7 bolts when 6 bolts are proven to hold up and avoid terrible cw.
 
Check out karking.com, or they're on ebay too under the name karking.
Or overbore.com, they have built blocks at a decent price. But most the reviews i've heard say it takes at least a few weeks for shipping, so i'm not sure how much of a hurry your in.
I'm expecting my karking longblock for 1200 any day now!
 
Actually you can get built 7-bolts from us, but you'd have to wait awhile. I build motors one at a time, and usually to order (do a lot of strokers, long rods, oddball stuff sometimes).

However, we do sell a ton of the more popular rebuild components, Wiseco, Ross, Eagle, etc.

Magnus will sell you a phenomenal motor, and more than likely have it ready to ship, but you have to be willing to pay for the quality.

If you're just looking for a factory 7-bolt runner, I would check junkyards or local lists. I frequently see running 7-bolts available when people decide to do a 6-bolt swap.
