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

[asajay at asajay.com]

I recently ran into a fellow who has several bare blocks ready to  
rebuild.  They've been cleaned, checked, sealed and primed.  The  
majority of them were 351C 4-bolt main Cobra Jet blocks, virgin bores.  
  They were stacked end-to-end and bolted together with steel strap.   
They were all currently being used as a wine rack, most effectively I  
may add.

If he ever needs a new bare block for a rebuild, he just unbolts one  
from the wine rack... drinks the wine... then builds a new engine.  :)
