I just want the truth (I can handle it!)
If a block is an SR block but is otherwise correct - fine. A restamp? Fine.
It is just with the amount these cars are going for, I just want full disclosure.
There might be a point that I spend over $100K on a car (doubtful) - but at that level you can bet I will do my research.
I'm grateful that my GP has its "born-with" block - and ditto for my father's 65 421 HO 4spd Catalina.

I'm glad you brought it up. I find the responses interesting. I think the next subject should be re-bodied cars. After all these years I thought that was a big deal. Now it's looking like it wouldn't matter if a million dollar GTO was originally a 350 2 bbl Skylark as long as it has the right VIN and numbers stamped throughout.... Learn something new everyday.
