They can always be rebuilt/ported/modded, if you have a few hundred laying around, burning a hole in your pocket.
They'll bolt on/work with any 60 degree block, other than the latest VVT 3.5 and 3.9s.
They'll also make superb doorstops.

Or scrap everything.

It would need a crank kit, cam and bearings, and might need rings. I'd be glad to donate it if you want it. I can muster up most of the stuff that bolts on, too.
