  I did a search here (http://car-part.com/index.htm) for 5 bolt 289 hydraulic
lifters engine came up with 1 in Tracy, Ca. Lots of other searches available.

    Hi all,

    I need a correct 5-bolt bell, 289 block for the Le Mans Coupe. The
previous
    block broke and is basically a boat anchor.  I'd prefer a bare block with
    standard bore & main caps but would consider a complete motor. I would
    consider an .020" over bore.  The blocks I'm looking for would have the
    casting numbers of:

    260 blocks:

    C3OE-B

    C4OE-B

    C4OE-E



    289 blocks:

    C3AE-N

    C4OE-C

    C4OE-F



    I found one locally in SoCal but it's .060 over now and needs the bores
    cleaned up.  I found a standard bore in Colorado but the shipping charges
of
    ~$500. would kill me. Anyone near the SoCal area have any leads ?



    Thanks !  I really appreciate your help



    Darrell
