No. (I was not aware that off-center blocks came with them.)

There are pics in the link at the bottom of my first post (http://www.geocities.com/joyof6/3_8Stage2Block). Do you need me to e-mail those? Other angles?

Art,

That's a really nice block you've got. I'm suprised you haven't sold it yet. If it was the siameese bore version I would be all over it. BTW, How bad is the damage from your last outing? The video was pretty scary.

Thanks Neal. I remember the siamese discussion a long while back.

Damage to the GS seemed "confined" to a lost block/pan and exited rods (5/6); I'll see if crank can be saved. Not my main concern now. The car suffered severe fire damage at home last week. That was scarier than the on-track event. The plan is to get the repair going on the GS chassis next year and also bring my S2 GN back to life. Then, gotta get a V6 shortblock built for the GS. Maybe the Bulldog 455 will have a 2000-plus hp seal of approval by then . Kinda doubt it. I could be tempted to go with an enemy V8 anyway but that decision can wait.

I have responded to all inquiries and it's still available.

So there's no confusion, the person who contacted me late last night at joyof6@yahoo.com and spoke with me today has until tomorrow to decide. I will post update at that time.
