Cursed short block

So originally i was going to sent my curt brown built 2.0L 4g63 to AG auto to have them do the 2.2 and the scrap metal recyclers came to my shop and took it.... shop owes me
Now i bought another evo to send AG a long block and DHL has shipped the head but lost my bottom end!
Anyone got a good core out there?

The USDM fuel tank is discontinued. I had a good one a couple years back that was missing the fuel pump housing and it needed cleaning on the inside. I scrapped it because no one wanted to buy it. Funny how things change over time.

I was going to buy a block from my friend and he had the block at a local shop. I asked the shop to ship it out to RS motors through UPS. Somehow UPS picked it up and lost it. The next time I ship a block it's going on Freight with full insurance coverage.

Same way they lose AC units, etc. Gross negligence. Nowadays I try my hardest to never use UPS.

Tell me about it, so many parts that I scrapped/sold I'm kicking myself in the head for now..funny how you take it for granted when you have easy access or supply of something.

Now knowing that parts are going to be discontinued left and right I'm hoarding like never before.
