I have one in a 38 Hudson. The head is off so not sure how good it is, but it is available. May have another one, will have to look later.

Yep another one died on me. I have a bunch of fairly new parts from the first one that I lost soon after I had it rebuilt. Thinking I might just be able to use them if I can find a  block in good enough condition. For the life of me can't figure out what happened to cause that hole. Engine ran fine for a bit then noticed water in oil. Pulled head and found worn spot on side of cylinder where something scraped through. Such is life

I have a SBC 350 engine which I might just drop in and forget about the old engine Have been bitten twice already.

I only have the one 38 block it would need to be bored.  I have 5-6 40’s blocks but the distributor is in the wrong place not sure if they would work.

The later engine will work, just a bit tight for getting at the distributor.

Really looking for a 37 block to put in the parts of a rebuilt 212 that never even got on the road when the block cracked out when torquing head. I have all new pistons, rings, crank has been retooled plus a new valves, new bearing poured. Anyway you get my point. I would just need it bored out a tenth.

Getley - I have a 175 engine I would sell to you, under certain conditions. Are you in the HET club? Look me up in the roster and call or email me and we can talk about it.

Getley - Are you still out there? Did you see this offer?

Sorry got tied up. I think I am going to pass at this time but thanks anyway. Running short on cash.
