QB 409 block
 

Looking for a December 1961 dated "QB" 409 block. Bare blocks or short blocks with correct rotating assembly considered.

Thanks

Jake

Jake, I have a couple but they have VINs on them. What's the point of finding an original assy date if the VIN doesn't match your car? You might be better off with a decked block with the right casting date. And I'm NOT suggesting restamping.
Verne :hmmm:

Because an original engine from another car built close to the same time is the next best thing to the original &quot;born with&quot; engine IMO. I would never deck an original pad!

Call Tom @ 630-337-3481. He has a few, as well as some NOS blocks still in their crates!
