Currently I am building a 2180 new for a project. I would suggest that you buy new parts and build a new engine. I have a grand total of $2800 in my 2180. I also found that you can get the 4340 crank at a lot of places, the new aluminum case made for large bore and stroke alot cheaper than going thru Great Plains. My 4340 crank new, nitrided with no taper, I am using a gear reduction drive, was only $160 direct from a local wholesaler, he also got me my case for $320. Heads, cylinders and pistons were $1400..... shop around before you buy.

Unless you know the specific history of the engine, the case and headsmay cost more to bring it into spec. than it is worth if you plan on a large stroke and bore engine (2180) If plans are for a small engine (up to 1915cc) the optons are greater.
