    You will have to have it built. Nobody makes a production AMC motor capable of handling a blower. Send it up here for a completel long block would be about 8-9K

    I think he means that he has a blown (broken) motor.

    I see, sorry about that I thought you meant supercharged. Most larger engine rebuilders do a decent job on the long block.

    I bought a rebuilt 304 long block from Precision Master Engines a couple years back. It was quite well built. The only mod I had done to it was an RV cam. Still using stock everything else, MC2100 carb. Very happy with it. The price and shipping were good (Spokane Wa to eastern Ontario Canada) and they were great to deal with on the phone. The only problem is that their website is up and down at times.

    I hear that Jasper does a pretty good job with AMC as well.
