OK, so after the wonderful people here helping me understand what a block is and not making fun of me. I decided to read up on short block and long block.

So, if I was to destroy my stock block after being boosted, I could buy like a short block package for example from Z1 and swap that in and I would be good to go again?

There is not a solid way to predict what will be taken out when an engine lets go. In many cases, you will need to replace the entire engine. Even if you just break a rod, the carnage that ensues will often destroy the top half of the engine as well.

Have taken too many motors apart to see that everything was damaged. Rare to see one that didn't damage the heads. Took one apart that had bits and pieces in the inlet manifold.
