Engine / Short Block availability

[919Stinger]

Anyone have any clue on how to get your hands on a short block for this car? (newest part # 242G23LA0C (formerly 242G23LA0B and 242G23LA0A))
Cant seem to find anything online... (either discontinued or backordered)

I check them too to confirm they actually have it - Every place I have called so far says it is discontinued or not available or backordered with no ETA on getting back in stock...

The engine assembly is backorder at the dealership. Pretty sure it would be the same for a short block. You will have to order it and wait before getting it

I had called, and at the time I called there were two left in the US. Not sure about now, but I ended up going in another direction and getting a low mileage engine for about the same price as that short block cost...
