The last time I checked the AP1 shortblocks (assembled bottom end) could be had wholesale for under 2500$.. I'm surprised they charge more for the AP2.
The machine shops in my local area can't hold the tolerances Honda can. If I even need to replace the shortblock in car I'll be going OEM Honda.

i did already. my dealership can get me an AP1 block for 2900 and an AP2 for 3400 - hardly a bargain unfortunately.
in the used market i'd rather not just buy a block either - who knows why it was taken apart in the first place.
i have a couple of leads but im still not sure just yet. i guess i will keep seraching!
and for the guy who asked earlier - i made about 300tq to the wheels.

its a tough call, if my motor ever gave out, depending on the damage, i would either buy a used motor out of a low mileage car, or send my motor to laskey to have it built.
as for the clutch, 300wtq doesnt need puck, competiion cllutch disk or clutchmasters stage 3 disc.
good luck with the rebuild.

Just a thought (for possible pickup) since his profile says NY.
If Dev and Telos both order one, I could drive my truck out to RI and pick up the blocks for them...

I haven't decided whether I will buy a new bottom end and use a headgasket for my setup or build the bottom end. We'll see 
My friend works at a Honda dealer here in north NJ; I will ask him how much he can get me a stock bottom end for...
