New guy here. Bought a 94 yj a week ago and it has got a slight knock in the bottom end. started pricing long blocks ($1700 is the cheapest ive found which is ridiculous to me),and found a bare block at a local junkyard for $250. it comes with a crank and the cam but no rods, pistons, or oil pan. and they say it only has or had 37k miles on it. so is that a good price or too much? and heres the kicker, my buddy just scrapped two, yes two, perfectly good 2.5s cause nobody wanted em.
