Re: "complete longblock" (Muckman)

Like muckman said, its the block and head.. Sometimes that includes the manifolds but not always.. Also some people think of the alternator and stuff like that as accessories..

By industry use, a long block is a short block plus the head installed. To have the manifolds, distributor included, it would be a "complete"

Ahh.. I have always heard of a longblock as short + head also.. and the extras are accessories..
