So Im guessing March 28, 2000....is this a good block??
-
Yep.
It's about as good as GM spray blocks get. It's among the last casting runs GM did. Crack-check protocol is the same as any other, though.

So a guy down the street has this longblock for sale. He said it run fine in a 95 dually, but was scavanged and removed after the trans went bad. He ended up with the engine, thought about doing a diesel conversion in his gasser, then gave up hope.
My question is what is it worth site unseen. He says it runs fine, but who knows. No pump, turbo, intake or accessories. Just longblock.
I realize it could be a total loser, but it is what it is.
Whats it worth on the gamble?
Thanks

I can't tell you what it's worth, but I wouldn't fork over any serious cash without pulling the pan and getting a good look inside. Maybe a cherry. Maybe a lemon.
