i have a 2002 ep3 and the other night my block cracked and now im screwed so what would be my best bet? just to get a whole new engine? or just replace the block? or do you think there are problems with the internals within the motor? oh yeah and is my block a longblock or shortblock?

thanks in advance!

longblock = head and block
shortblock = just the block

What were you doing when it cracked?

If you still have waranty take it back to honda

 

Good luck with that. If you want to do internal work and go boost now is a good time.You also have the option for an A2 or A.
