302 Bare Block

[tony41]

I'm tryin to find somewhere that sells bare new blocks, Im interested in building a motor over this winter, I know Summit did sell them, but I don't see them anymore. Can anyone help me out? Thanks..

I thought summit had them as well. My buddy has about a dozen. He owns a machine shop and can have one ready to assemble (all machine work inc.) for about $150. That is if you want it shipped.

THANKS

I called Summit today to find out if they still solded that block and they said NO because they ran out of the stock they had, and that will be it.

a used block is a better starting point for a build up, its already been heat cycled thousands of times. any rebuilder or remaufacturer should have good used blocks available

Like posted above a well seasoned block is what you want Find one that looks decent at a wrecking yard and have it magnaflux'd for cracks.
