looking for a cheap 2.3 block

hi there im looking for a cheap 2.3L block for my build. the engine in my tc only has 140k in it and id rather just sell the original motor as a whole with turbo then rebuild it as it is very low km

all i need in the block doesnt need to have pistons, head, or even oil pan with pump

MUST be free of any cracks this block will be built for 700 hp at 35-40 psi boost

thanks.
erik

I hate to be the "a" hole here, but your after 700hp and your gonna use a stock block?

Why on earth would you consider that, when you can get an aftermarket tall deck, and build a stroker.

And if $$ is the issue, you shouldn't be building a 700hp engine to begin with.

You can built a 400hp 2.3 for a decent price and have pretty good reliabilty as well.
700hp is gonna be pretty much a "race" only engine.

Just not sure on how much you know about turbo engines and building up a 700hp engine, but this isn't going to be a backyard rebuild and crank up the boost.
