[DeTomaso] 351C 4bolt main shortblock for sale +.030

[Tony DiGiovanna]

Not worth 30 cents, really.
Cleves may not be plentiful, but I still come across too many stock-bored
engines to make a used 0.030 over block worth any effort at all.

Pulled this from a yard last week. D2AE-CA +.030" over block, forged L2416
pistons with a small dish in them, -.010" on the rods, haven't checked the
mains but presuming same thus far.  Has been run and I see some slight
scoring at the bottom of the stroke on the inner cylinders 2,3,6,7. Rod
bearing lower cap looked nice, but then they always do!

I will pop a piston out and check for taper but the bore tops do not "feel"
ridged, but the guage will tell for certain. Will post numbers when I can
get to it.

Looks like it may have been balanced slightly as rod ends have
sanding/grinding contours on them.   No harmonic balancer, it is toast,
worst slipped outer ring I have seen in a long time!  Was in front of a C6
trans.

$275. Located in Santa Clara CA.

Steve
