Thank you guys for all the input on this.! I appreciate it your help. I have checked with Jasper and they have no 400's or 455's --short or long block-- on the shelf but would only take a 400 from me and rebuild it. So that's out...
Regarding the $500 400 , I have asked him for block code, block date code and head code...Says he hurt his back and off his feet now... when he's able he will send pictures... I don't want to drive 4 1/2 hrs one way without knowing what it really is.
I have checked in classifieds on this site but haven't found anything yet that seems right. I live in PA so distance can also be an issue. If anyone hears of a possibility, please let me know.
So, at present engine progress is stopped... Much more to do on the rest of the car though so progress overall will continue.
