When you have seen the UAW members on the job you can understand why the companies have no choice but to have a backup system in place

Went out and looked in my motor pile six 400's with thin balancer 11 with the thick one. So they are not extinct but not common.

No some 400's came factory with steel cranks, I have two that came out in police vehicles

If its a good buildable block that's in the ballpark. Unless of course you have a friend that gives you one.

The answer you assume he will give is- ill take your offer.

NEVER assume the owner has no idea what they are worth! Or best offer means exactly that. It does not mean- ill take whatever you offer. He is saying- this is a ballpark figure of what I will take.

Big blocks are nice and torque monsters but weight is a factor and if you go aluminum money is a factor.Straight line brute force- big block,small blocks are a lot more"user friendly"

Like the guys said its a system not just one component.I was around when these things rolled off the trailer from Fenton and most were not slouches then.A stock 383 in an a body will roast a bunch of tires.You will have trouble hooking up if you can tune it at all.

Or maybe they wanted the carb and valve covers.

No need to be pissed,that's just the breaks of the game.

Sounds like if you don't have a grand you better look elsewhere.It just depends on the year and everything included.Im not a big fan of 440's and I have seen them go for 250 to a thousand depending on what they are

Sure no problem just make sure your Nike's are in good shape

Thanks 65; It's amazing how many hate the guy because he has next to impossible parts to find.I hope the guy that was looking for them finds your post.Not everyone can own these cars and thats just the way it should be.Enjoy the cars that you like and can afford.

Thanks Haze;mine looks like yours-does yours have any numbers on it?Jim could you give me your E mail-I can't seem to load pics on here.Thanks

Thanks Jim;do you know of any stamped numbers on the frame that would ID this as DC or was it just an in house change?

Anyone have a picture of this K frame?I bought a bunch of A body parts-and the guy said the K frame was big block direct connection.Just trying to ID it.Thanks

Easiest and cheapest way-360.Have a 69 340 and 69 440,smallblock handles better.360 can be had forlow bucks.Saw a 318 cop car engine-4bbl with trans 450,in Ky craigslist.Don't forget-if you have a 7.25 rear don't go crazy with 300 hp

I don't know about life span-too many variables.I could take you out to the bonepile at the salvage and you can see all types that have broke,some behind 4 cyl and some behind diesels.All in all the 8 3/4 is a great rear,used behind /6 all the way up to 440's ,can't say much more than that.

Now this is a smart guy.They bolt up nice-run down the road nice,I am sure you will be happy with the results.
