So my old man is working in the land down under for the next few months and I am going to buy myself an RB30 short block and have it shipped over. SO while I am at it might as well get a whole pallet since I have to pay freight anyway.

I plan on buying 6 blocks and keeping one. price will be 1500-1800(depends on shipping) for a complete short block(block, cradle, pistons, crank, hopefully oil pan) I will be handling all the shipping to get them to the US then I will be shipping out of upstate NY.

Just want to see if I am wasting my time buying 5 extra blocks, but I can't be the only one who wants to build an RB30!!!

Let me know what everyone thinks!!

Your probably wasting your time at those prices, I sold my landed block with micro polished and balanced crank for 1,200.

interested but at a realistic price, its a used OEM shortblock afterall

You can figure on spending at least $1000 a piece for the shortblock. Half of what your gana pay is for the shipping aspect...

Good thing I can get them for 750 right down the street from my shop lol

keep me posted I'm interested to and from NY I can P/U the short block. I read on a post that someone got a early rb30 and it didn't have the machined surface for the tensioner nor did it have oil provisions for turbo.
