Anyone want a 370?
 
Well just went to pick up the block and come to find out theres still some pitting on #3, 4 and very very light stuff in 8 and 7. If it was all light I would run it and have it burn oil for a little while in hopes that it would carbon over. However the pitting in 3 and 4 is pretty bad and I dont have the money or will to do a 370 so if someone wants it make me an offer, or if you have a block you would like to trade PM me.
For now motor is still at the machine shop so I still have the option to tell him to bore it out. Let me know.

So do you need a block or what? PM me if I can I might have some stuff to help you out like a 6.0 that can be built to either LQ4 or LS2 specs

he said maybe .010 at the minimum. He said .030 would definitely take it out.


However, Low_LQ4 is my FOOKING HERO! :chug::chug::chug: :judge::judge::judge: :usa::usa::usa:

Just got a call, haha he says "Man, what the hell is wrong with you?! take my block!" :eyes:

Thanks AJ, you are my hero and I owe many of you very much right now. I really appreciate everything guys, you're all the shit IMO :D:chug:
