There's a Cars and Coffee thing going on right now. Why don't I care about going? Sleep is more important?
Also it's gonna be 90% mustangs and vettes

My old work partner's kid was working for Rodeck in the shop nearby. The machining on one of the blocks came out wrong with the hole for the distributor in the wrong spot by 1/4"k.... this seems too good to be true.. i wonder if it can use standard heads?

. John Rodeck said "Junk it". Jack's kid said "How much do you want for it?" "Scrap price and it's yours" was Mr Rodeck's response. Well, a case of beer and dinner at the machinist and welder's favorite local dinner house got Jack a remachined brand new Rodeck block for his SC Dragster 
yeah satch and eric johnson do nothing for me at all.. it's just wanking.... I played guitar for 30 years and switched to drums.. wish i had never touched a guitar, i love the drums sooo much
Wife and I went to Peter Framptons Guitar Circus in 2013, he had a bunch of great players including Mike McCready, Kenny Wayne Shepherd and more. They closed with While my guitar gently weeps, it was awesome, lotta talent on the stage that day, casino outdoor amphitheater, small venue. Also Guns and Roses, Los Lobos and others, think there was 8 guitarists on that last song

Damn, I wish I had gone to the chiro yesterday. I have a pinched nerve or irritated nerve between my shoulder blades and my right elbow is killing me. I have some arthritis in that area.

The only issue with the buying the whole combo would be the small cc of the 302 heads that came on it they used to get 9:1. with the short pistons, After market heads with the stock pistons would be sub 8.5:1.
Perfect candidate for a blown stroker or turbo though.

I just want the block... i have a 318 roller in my car with trickflows already (it's a turd though.... dunno why) i want to do a stroker.. i have a 360 block i just can't seem to get to the machine shop.. finding one already good to go would be ideal for me.

I haven't seen one with those marks before.. BUT.. doesn't matter... check all the teeth on those gears.. and make sure they all spin perfect and you can't wobble the gears much at all.. that matters most

I've been waiting on one of my 360 block for over a year, and the machinist had one of my 440 blocks for 18 months.
YES, IDEAL...

Jesus man... i would be finding a different machine shop.. that's insane. This guy is bout a hour drive.. which for me might as well be 12 hours but will be worth it.. been stressing bout getting this done..
than to figure out which stroker kit and probably a new cam... mine is a little small for a 408
