Also check with Oak Leaf Salvage in Wisconsin. Look around on Craig's List as well. If you decide to buy a new short-block, one of our vendors can surely help you out.

I checked ebay ,CL and other places ,I was thinking to get an ej207 twin scroll from jdm tiger japan ,but all these motors are older and i dont want to end up with problems ,I think ill just get brand new block assembly from amazon for 1900 shipped ,and build around it then ill salvage my old one here maybe someone will be interested I will check the vendors yet maybe they will have better price

Sounds like the optimal plan. Remember to have your heads cleaned up and resurfaced. That is very important. :D also for peace of mind you might want to think about replacing with a new timing belt, pulleys and water pump.
