Thanks Apache,
Longest wait was the machine shop. First to get them started on it, then when the cracks were found, waiting to get an answer back on a customer owned block they had at their shop. Owner did decide to sell it to me. I took the block to the machine shop on Monday, 12/11/17, got it back on Monday, 01/15/18. Just over a month. It only took 13 days to rebuild and reinstall.
