Re: would it be worth the trouble



Indeed. Probably the block is "worth" more to a person with a 1969 who needs a numbers correct block, too.

You may find a deal if you don't care about date code. For example, I recently saw where a newly rebuilt 413 long block sold for $950.
   
Thanks,
Gary H.
