Re: WTB short block
Jonah, it’s a rebuilt engine , but just the block. No trans,pan,head,manifolds, accessories. It varies a bit. It’s important to remember , unless you know the provenance of a short block, meaning you know the source was from a reputable rebuilder, it should be considered that It may need a complete going over. I know four guys who had a very p$$nfull experience with one short block.

Re: WTB short block
Short block would be a block with pistons/rods, valves/lifters/springs/cam and crankshaft. Normally a short block would not have head, valve cover door, flywheel, timing gear cover or pan.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas!

Re: WTB short block
Don, Hank is a reputable rebuilder. I will approve him without any doubt. If he got the right short block for you take it right now without any hesitation.
