    Engine cores

     



    We made a trip to a core supplier today to see about purchasing some core blocks----you can't believe how they are shipping this stuff out of here

    Also, how much is from Cash for Clunkers------

    We were amazed at the shortage of every day stuff even sbc, bbc(one block except for a 366 truck ) Ford 429/460, sbf, zero 351 windsor ( they had couple of 400c)

    We were able to purchase a total of 14 blocks, and are supposed to get a few pans, front covers, lifter spiders, etc

    So if anyone has a block that they someday want to use in a build up----take care of it, and maybe even get it cleaned while that equipment is still around
