[QUOTE="Corbic, post: 16586718, member: 171475"] eGay: Seller will claim photos are representative and not actual item. You'll have a hard time explaining to eGay what proper machine work is and if he did the damage or if you did it carting around a block in your van. Seller will agree to refund when you ship the block back. And eGay will be cool with that. Teksids: $750 is practically core cost these days as all the MK8s have been crushed and everyone knows what a Teksid is. So to think you'll get a good core, machined and shipped for $750 is wishful thinking. You in Cali, I'd be asking the forums and GayBook for recommended Ford engine builders in the West Coast. Gotta be a hundred of them. Start calling them if they have cores and quotes. This way you know they know mod motors, have torque plates and will do solid work. A million junk yards out here and you can always call LKQ for a aluminum engine. Machine work is going to run you $300+ for the bore and $200 for the deck and in sure a good hot tank etc is another $100-200. Budget $1k to get machine work done. So you paid $750 for what should cost $1500+ $200 shipping and are shocked you got junk. [/QUOTE]
