Welcome along! Do you know exactly what's went wrong on the engine? Hope the rebuild goes well for you!

Welcome to the forum.

Best bet if it's a 4 block is to start a fresh with a 5-8 engine. But the 6-8 engines would probably be the best if you consider a rod job.

The 4 block isn't the best design and are (some will argue) a little prone to failure. In particular crank walk, that was solved from the evo 5 onwards.

Hi and welcome along buddy!

Bad news about the engine!!!

As advised by others, do not rebuild the 4 block, it is prone to failure.

By the time you have thrown money into a rebuild, you will no doubt find that it would have been easier to just get a decent replacement block.

The 4 block will inevitably fail, even if it's rebuilt from scratch. Take your time, save some money and then make your move when you are ready to do so.

Good luck and keep us posted buddy.

LOL!

I never overly advertise my product. Everyone else just does it for me. :D
