Is there any value, other than scrap, for a 1969 4-bolt main block bored .060 over with piston #7 having a hole in the middle, piston might even be cracked and the cylinder wall is scored??? A small nut worked its way in to the cylinder. I have to get rid of it tomorrow. Thoughts!

I have a freshly machined 2 bolt block, just the block no internals I would sell if interested. It is 30 over, 0 decked, mains line honed, new cam bearings and frost plugs. Buy a set of pistons make sure the rod is not bent and transfer all the parts from your junk block. PM me if you are interested.

Being I have nowhere to store it and the machinist called it junk it is gone. I will keep that block in mind though. I slammed another 350 in it, just finished it up today because tomorrow I head to Brainerd for the races! I sure hope it will run at least 13.99 in the quarter because that is my class limit!!! Nice camshaft you have there.

Sounds like it's a 3/4 race cam. Good thing it wasn't a full race cam or you'd have 4 pieces razz

I am having a 383 Stroker put together that a friend of mine has in his shop. He is providing the bottom end and I am providing the top end. It will all be gone through at the machine shop and assembled by him. This should be my fastest combo yet so I will want to get it on the dyno.
