Plan on thousands not hundreds to fix. There are many things that need to be looked at other than the physical repairs. Ive even had a block that physically looked good after repair but the cam geometry was off center and the bores not straight and it would eat cams and lifters one after the other. Couldnt get anyone that wanted to touch fixing it at any price,and those few guys were fixing blocks blown in half for other customers.

Blue... If it is just a over the counter block needing lots of repairs I wouldn't pay 3K for it. If it had the vin stamped down by the oil filter for one of the 69 ZL1's it would be worth more. Also check to see if it still has a build stamp on the front pad. It it went to a actual car it has more value than it just being a over the counter poorly constructed block.
