I got this with some other stuff from the Royer estate. I believe it to be a 29 Essex block with crankshaft but nothing else. 2 3/4 bore. I don't have an Essex....yet. Anybody need it? Located 50 mi N of Albany, NY

  • I'm thinking 30/31 with the crankcase breather boss on the front drivers side.
  • Definitely 1930. '31 had a re-inforcing ridge along the crankcase, similar to the 308 blocks later on. Looks a bit "weather worn"!!!
  • thanks for the positive ID. Yeah, dirty but hasn't been out in the weather. Price is right. Come get it or it's goin to the scrap yard.
  • Knew Geoff would nail it! Here is the re-inforcing rib that he speaks of on the 31.
