So I got a quick question about engine blocks that maybe someone can help with.
I have 2 302 blocks. The first is a 1974 block which is in good shape. The second is an '85 roller block which sadly isn't in the best of shape.
I currently am running the '85 roller block but noticed that the block itself is cracked where a couple of the bellhousing bolts secure into the block itself. I don't htink it's a structural problem as far as the engine running but it probably isn't good.
My question is is it possible to swap all the engine internals from one block to the other and what work would I need to do in order to do this. Obviously the '74 block isn't a roller so that's most likely gonna be a problem.
If it is possible though I would like to give it a try. Thanks for any help.
