Thing is most people don't buy just the block alone, they usually buy a "short-block" which comes with the crankshaft, rods+pistons, camshaft+timing gears/timing chain. If you're car's engine is shot consider buying a used one at a salvage yard, assembling an engine from scratch requires a lot of tools and general automotive knowledge.

This is one of those questions where some more information would go a whole long way.

If you're talking normal replacement and not racing/performance type stuff-

Bare block you're either looking from the manufacturer or salvage.

Short/Long block can depend, but your best bet is to go with someone like Jasper who has a great reputation and stands behind their warranties. Otherwise most manufacturers will sell reman short/long blocks with pretty outstanding warranties as well.
