Got a standard bore 6-bolt 289 core available....

[blykins]

....if anyone is interested in a 289 for their car.

I can use the block/heads/crank/rods/timing cover for a brand new engine build and it would run less than $9000, complete with carburetor, fuel line, alternator, pulleys/brackets, etc. Essentially a drop in engine, all fresh, right off the dyno.
