Re: Anyone heard from TOD lately about casting a new block?
If you look at the folks that follow the Ford Barn and The HAMB, there are a lot of folks that would seriously consider purchasing a nice new block rather that tearing three or four of them apart and finding them all cracked or seriously damaged. I don't think the French SUMB truck blocks are near as available as they were for a time. I have enough stuff to build several engines if I had good blocks. My Pop sold two 49 F1 pickups without even asking me if I wanted one due to cracked blocks. He didn't think they were worth anything so he didn't even ask me about it and he gave them away too. I was not a happy camper when I found out.
