Not looking for a race motor. And a not running or tired motor is what I want.

It is for my TV production transport van. It is a retired Frito Lay van BUT the diesel motor well, has a HOLE in it.

Thanks though Dave.

Hey Dave the one on Kauai is a "NO GO".

Got the casting numbers from the heads and it is what my friend from GKRacing said is the infamous "Peanut Ports" that all Chevy guys avoid. Can't make any decent HP numbers.

Let me know if you get some leads cause I am still looking.
