---- Your advice is obviously important,but Rick,,,If he can buy them for the $500 figure wouldnt you say that it doesnt matter much if the blocks are 2-bolt or 4-bolt mains? There are lots of LS5 powered cars out there without correct blocks too. And,,,I personally dont see a bit of difference in a 2-bolt converted to 4-bolt engine if its done correctly in all regards.
----The thing I would want would be a signed bill-of-sale that states that if the blocks are cracked or unuseable in any way its "money back time". The seller should have no problem with those terms......Bill S
