Crate motors available? That may be the quickest and easiest for sure.

I just had mine replaced 3 weeks ago ( under warranty ) They told me it was $43,000 for the complete engine.

That's kind of silly for them to even try telling you that... considering you can buy the whole car (201302014) for that, with low miles.
At that price you could get a machine shop to mill you a 5.8L block out of a solid billet of aluminum.

I'm glad you had it covered under warranty, the $15K-$20K (going price) for a 5.8L is pretty steep.
