As was seaid in the previous post, you're likely wasting your money. You are going to need to get everything line honed and you need a new crank. If you even attempt to use your old crank, it wont last.

Well my crank and the block is at the machine shop and its all going to be machined before they put it together. Would it still wont work?

Do you know any place i can buy a new short block for good price?

I wouldn't trust a machined crank of a spun bearing, especially one that spun a main bearing. I've seen too many people invest hundreds if not over one thousand dollars into an engine rebuild after a spun bearing only to have it last 10 miles.
