Well, I was trying to work a deal with another guy, but it sound like it isnt gonna happen. I was asking what it was worth on the camaros.net board and this guy emailed me and asked me to send pics and the story behind it and if I want to sell. No more response out of him. I ended up with this block (3970010) in 1980, when I purchased my 69 Camaro. After a few years I decide to rebuild it. It had 327 internals in it when the machine shop tore it down. It was a standard bore block. I had it bored 30 over and rebuilt as a 350. I do not know if it has the original pink rods or not. I do remember vaguely the machine shop saying something about the rods being great rods. It definately does not have the original pistons or crank, as the crank is a cast GM 350 crank. I put it back in my car and drove it maybe 3500 street miles. Then the car sat and was started every now and then. The engine ran with no problems when I pulled it. I found out how to decode it when it was rebuilt and the numbers pointed to 70 1/2 LT1!! I had the orig carb and traded it away for some M/T valve covers [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]. That was before I knew what I had. I have what I believe is the original (havent verified date code) 2110 intake for it and it it original MINT. Not sandblasted or repainted, but original finish. The block does not have heads on it right now. I have sprayed it with an oil that was recommended by th machine shop for engines that sit. I would think it would only need a light honing or possibly nothing as I am sure there is no cylinder wear. It has never been decked or restamped. I have 186 heads for it, but they are dated G 24 of 69 and are the 1.94 variety. Thats about it. I guess I am open to offers. I do have pics of the engine. Will sell separately or as a package. Like I said, the only thing that scares me is shipping it. Sounds like it would still be a pain.
