Well, the block is a standard Z6 with a .020 over bore. He said it was sleeved and pretty much a closed deck. I was just a suspisious as yall are about this, but i took it to an engine building shop in Harahan, LA and they looked at it for me. I didn't want to use it if it was a piece of ----. They looked at and said it was made with some type od iron ductile sleeves and was what looked like welded or made some how into a close deck design. It pretty much looks like an H series closed deck, but with ductile sleeves. I don't know how to put the auction on the site, so maybe i can give you an item number. I also stand corrected, i got the block for 400 dollars, i was seriously thinking of something else. You can see it in the auction, for 400$. Give me a little while to find the item.
