Are you sure? With an estimated shipping date of tomorrow, it seems like they have them in stock.

the first part # says it's in stock but the revised # says n/a.i haven't called them yet to verify it suck s that it'll cost me almost $300 more and i''ll have to wait on it because of truck shipping.my current block needs to be bored at least .040 and line bored also.i don't want a 331 or 347 because i don't have enough head or cam to take advantage ot the extra cubes plus i just bought a new 50oz sfi balancer and new ford flywheel and most all strokers use 28oz weights.
