I managed to blow my head gasket and damage my block during the second practice session at the 48 hours of Sebring. Besides this screwing up my weekend, I now need a new engine block for my S2. I've been told either a 968 or an S2 block will work. Does anyone out there have one in good shape that I can buy or know of one that is available?

You might want to contact John at redline rennsport he has some engine blocks.

I have a 968 block available but it has a broken (@block) alternator mount.

What happened to the block? If it is just scratched it may be able to be bored and/or homed for oversized pistons or oversized rings and re-coated pistons

Unfortunately, a 2" by 3" chunk blown right out of the engine block.
