I was just going to post a 226 engine for parts or ???  The insides are fresh & rebuilt but the block seems to have a crack. THe crank/pistons, valve parts etc are fresh,head just resurfaced...don't know if this would help.

Why do you say "SEEMS" to have a crack.   What led you to that conclusion??

I'll keep it in mind. I found a complete engine and once I get mine out I'll determine if it's buildable.
