    Looking for someone who has an extra 3.9L block that they are 
willing to part with on the cheap, and is willing to ship.
Despite having put on what I thought was a sufficient amount of oil on 
the bores after having mine honed, is still developed some pitting in 
three of the cylinders while being stored.  The machinist thinks it may 
run OK, since they are towards the bottom of the stroke, but I don't 
want to do this half-assed.
    Anyhow, it has to be a 3.9 block (not a 4.0 or 4.6) because I 
already had my 300 crank turned down and internally balanced (damn, that 
tungsten is expensive!!!).
