Scored!
As some of you know, ive been havimg a lot of trouble with my cracked block 350 in my 72 gmc. Well, after a bottle of stop leak, its running well now. So, my neighbor was cleaning out her garage and she asked for my help. I went over and what do you know? A nice chevy 350 longblock bolted up to a 2000 pound stand!! She says she knows nothing about it and its been there for 7 years. She was going to put it out on the curb for trash day!! I tell her no ill take it and give you some momey like 60 bucks for the stand because the engine has been sitting for so long it needs a complete rebuild and isnt worth really anything at this point. She agrees and I wheel it to my garage. I check the numbers and its a 10066036 block. 4 bolt main. Never been machined. Still has cross hatch on shiney cylinder walls
 going to build this one up fast and real loud oh yea it was a good day yesterday...Posted via Mobile Device |
