I might be selling the short block out of my room mates ITR:

98 ITR bottom end
84.5mm Darton solid deck sleeve kit
Endyn 9.8:1(at deck height-more like 9.5) roller waves
Eagle rods
OEm bearings
original ITR crank

buy it so we can gut this thing and start racing it

A lot of people swear by Import Builders.

I know that Jeff from IB has a shitty reputation with H-T in terms of his attitude and posting habits, but i've never heard bad about their engines.

http://www.importbuilders.com

Check them out and compare to others...
