Looking for a damaged aluminum LS block

[Xnke]

Need an aluminum LS block to cut up for my students. We need the front two cylinders, and the rear two cylinders, and the four in the middle don't matter because we're going to cut the block up for a display.

I'm in Bowling Green KY, have some feelers out at GM as they sponsor the school already but I'd rather not cut up a block in running condition when I can use a block that has worn out sleeves or a stripped middle head bolt boss.

The block will be cut up for a demo/display on what kind of repairs can be done by our students after they've finished the class, my kids are all car crazy and most of my machine shop class are there because the automotive class was full.

Let me know what you have and where you are, and how much you want for one. Ideally it'll be a block that needs to be sleeved, but I can repair most damage to get it up to the level we need for a demo.

I already have a stack of iron blocks to use for practice, but the aluminum/iron contrast of the sleeve makes for a better display.
