Re: 512 block for sale.
It is a factory 4 bolt main.It is at the machine shop right now getting the caps done,so I will need to look for the oil cooler lines.I am also going to find out the date code.The machine shop measured it and we found out that it is only .090" over,not the .100" that I measured {I did a quick check using a .030" piston and some feeler guages while the engine was in my neighbor's truck}.He took our caps and said that he would add them to his cap collection{he has hundreds of caps},and he would find a set of caps that fit as close as possible to the origianl bore to maybe aviod the line bore job,which is a good thing too.The preliminary crack ceck was O.K.,but he is going to go over it properly before installing the caps.I can call him and find out f the block has the cooler lines,and get the exact date code.I will post back with the info.
