I have an original 1957 272 short block and a 292 +.060 block that I will give to the first person who picks it up. The 272 short block is disassembled and came out of a running 1957 Ford. I sold the G heads that came on the engine. The bore is original and looks better than most. The engine ran strong.
I got the 292 .060 block in a trade. Someone rebuilt the engine and then spun a bearing. I threw the crank out. I haven't checked the taper, but the bores look good enough to use with a hone job.
Email me at phil@lakefrontflorida.com if you want these parts. They are in the City of Eustis about a 1/2-hour north of Orlando. I need to make room for more parts.
Parts are gone. Thanks!
