Angry 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.

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


However, Low_LQ4 is my FOOKING HERO!

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

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 **** IMO
