I want a 350 or 383 than i can put in my 85 TA. it is ok if it needs rebuilt as long as the block is in good shape. preferably under $500.

location= near pittsburgh

 

I got a fresh block I would send you for $250 plus shipping... I'm in Hattiesburg, MS 39401. All the machine work is done. I put 500 miles on it. You can still see the hone marks in it.

 

4 bolt? ci's? year? etc? any pics?

 

It is a 2-bolt block, 350 bored 30 over makes it 355. 1994 roller block. don't have pics. I don't have a camera to take any. I will see if i can get some but can't promise. The 2-bolt block is good up to 600 hp with the stock caps. You can put splayed 4-bolt caps on it and it will be stronger than any 4-bolt block you find. I will throw the pistons and rods in for another $50 so $300. One piston will have to be replaced and two rods need to be replaced.
Machine work done:
bored and honed 0.030"
new freeze plugs
new oil galley plugs
new cam bearings
pistons pressed on rods
all caps matched by machinist(main and rods)
cleaned in a vat after machine work was done
checked for cracks before machining

This block is ready to be assembled.

 

How much of a pain will it be to swap it?

 

what do you mean swap it. You have a 305 in now? if so then you can use almost everything on your 305 on here. Only thing your heads would have a smaller chamber so it would raise the compression a little. It would be an easy swap. If you have all the gaskets and such you can do it all in a day. I've been known to.

I have a L98 short block that has 88k on it, virutally no wear, but has a couple of burned pistons. 250 bucks, in NY zip 12566, pick up only though. It has cam/lifters/spider hold down as well, just the heads are taken off.
