Take a look at Turner Engineering. They have a website that details everything. You will get an understanding of the costs involved. Your biggest headache will be the labour charges to replace the engine iof you are unable to do it yourself

the ali block cracks usualy near stud hole behind liner the liner only slips if you get it hot enough for piston to drag it the liner sits on a step that has to be broken before liner moves,just get a top hat linered block and swap yout parts with new rings and brgs
