Doubt anyone else would want a .125" block with a couple sleeves and I don't have it in me to just throw it out. I originally thought the block was standard bore but it had been bored out to a 427 at some point in the past so I kind of get him not wanting it. But, it's still his original block, I'd want mine even if it had a hole in it!

It's a thrill to be able to find and buy back your original engine......I was able to do just that on my former 1969 SS396 L34 Chevelle :-)
