Question Looking for a new block

Hi all, does anyone know where a 68 YS code unbored or .030 block might be located? I need to replace my .060 as it is worn out. Thanks

If it is numbers matching, get it sleeved.

What date code are you looking for? A friend has a 68 YS that he would part with. Not sure of date or his price but I could ask.

Agree with Boss, sleeve it if your original block.

The block that is in the car is not #'s matching, so just a 68' YS block would be great. It currently has a 68' WT block that is not worth sleeving, since is not the correct block for the car. Thanks,
John, could you find out what your friend would want for his and what he has?
