For about 500 bucks. I purchased it in Pilot Point , Texas and picked it up there. In 2011. I removed the intake manifold and heads to verify. Yes, Hecho en Mexico and with the S side lump on the front of the block. I checked today that it rotated, with no noise, with a wrench. I checked to see if it had been bored before and the cylinders are as left the manufacturing plant at nominal 4.000 inch give or take a smidge. There is a very very small ridge as normal of small small block with miles. Certainly to me it could be ridge removed and honed and it would work . I have not even removed the oil pan, lol, oil filter or water pump or other than the intake and heads. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I am ready to release back into the wilds. If you need a Mex block for a project make me an offer and drop in and pick it up. If you need confirmation ask me for photos of the cast hecho in mexico in the lifter valley and lump on the block. You will need to pick it up with your transport carriage of some sort. I can load it into your pickup with my engine stand. Heads tossed in free of charge as well as intake if I can find it. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Make me a reasonable offer. No give away but reasonable.
