I have the opportunity of buying a broken ST20DET long block for $120-180.

It's a long block with intake , fuel rails , and accessories.

The block has a hole in it. Maybe a broken connecting rod ....

Is it a good thing to buy ?

what do you think ?

buy it for spare parts

Spare parts for sure... Sell what you don't need/want.

How did people ever make decisions before the Internet.

windowed the block? I wouldn't spend too much on this...

Maximum $120 then ?

I just hope the piston didnt destroy the cylinder chamber or else the head will be useless..

how much worth a good head and maybe the red valve cover is worth something, injectors , fuel rails , intake , coilpack ?

you can prolly flip the head, injectors, rails, coil packs,harness for a grand total

buy it and build the head put it on hyour car. NOTHING is better then having something to work on without downtime.
