Like others have said it must be a local thing. I don"t know about scrapping whole machines and putting holes in the blocks accomplishes much of anything because you can still get an engine for the machine, hole in block or not. I just read an article concerning reman engines and the only Federal mandate concerning the selling/installing a reman engine is that the reman has to be at least at the same tier or higher than the engine it replaces. Basically to do a reman the mfg has to reclaim the old engine and either "capture" or destroy it. In other words they have to get a core of the same type engine you get and either rebuild that engine or scrap it. There can be less of that particular engine in the system, accomplished by destroying them, but there can be no new ones build they can only rebuild/reman the ones already in existance. If it were me I"d see if I could get the machine for scrap price and go from there. Depending on where the hole is often a block can be repaired without alot of problems. There"s a shop local to me that"s been doing repairs like that for years.
