I have been looking around for some engines to put into my teener and I have been getting some okay responses.

A few are selling "Long blocks". I thought a long block is an engine that is missing the intake and exhaust systems, is this correct?

Is it common to say you have a "Running long block engine for sale" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) A running engine to me means a running engine., nothing else needed.

Cheers

What's the difference between a small block and a big block?
How about a short block and a long block?
Short Block: An engine WITHOUT the head(s). Usually includes the crankshaft, camshaft, and pistons.

Long Block: An engine WITH the head(s). Usually does not include the oil pan, valve covers, and manifolds.
