512 block for sale.

[RichSchmidt]

I am going to be putting this on Ebay once it is back from getting checked at the machine shop,but I will put it here so that if anybody needs it you can have 1st dibs.My neightbor just came across a 512 block out of a race car.The block is coded early 1970,but I will get the exact date when it comes back,I belive it is between january and march of 1970.I measured to be .100 over but the bores are clean and should work at this bore with just a hone job.It has ben decked so there are no numbers on it,and the inside of the lifter valley was ground a bit for a rev kit,but this wont effect usage in a sock application.When he got it it had no main caps,but we had caps,so after inspection,the caps will be fitted and the block machined.Basically it will be a ready to use 100 over block.It would be good as a CE block for an earlier car,or as a correct motor for a late 70 car.Either way,he will have about 900 into it,but if somebody really needs this block to do a correct resto,we will sell it to them for a grand,otherwise we will let the Ebay hounds have at it.I cant believe there is one on Ebay right now for 3 grand.We figure a 100 over block isnt as desirable,but for a car with a lot of history,it might seem more original then saying your LS6 chevelle that has been a race car for the last 20 years before being restored just happened to have only had the block bored .030" over all those years.You can email me at [email protected] if you are interested.
