What is a long block?
A long block is the short block which includes the block casting with all the required machining, crankshaft, connecting rods, all new rod bearings, main bearings, pistons, rings, soft plugs, camshaft and timing. The cylinder heads which includes head casting with all the required machining, new valves, keepers, springs and seals, all new rocker arms push rods and lifters complete the assembly. The long block also includes a full set of gaskets and a new oil pump. The non wearing parts of an engine such as the oil pan, valve covers, timing covers, and intake manifold are removed from your old engine, cleaned and reinstalled on the new long block. There is no need to raise the cost of an engine replacement by purchasing these items. If you view our site and click on one of the picture icons you will see what exactly a long block looks like.
