Looking at a used small block tomorrow...

Thanks for the additional help tips, I'll be sure to check for those.



I had a 360 already with a block that needs machine work to be ran, so I have all those spare parts with an intake, including a car oil pan and dipstick. I've also got new gaskets and a timing chain from it. My budget is tight so if I can use what I have already on hand I can save myself a few hundred bucks for the remaining parts I need. If this thing doesn't pan out I'll check a local yard and see if they offer any warranties and what they want for a Magnum out of curiosity.
you do know all your stuff will fit on a magnum block except for the intake manifold correct? Also out of curiosity what is he asking for this core motor?
