I think they made less than 10000 blocks so its going to be kind of hard to find one for a good price. You would probably be able to get a dart block brand new cheaper. Also the older 302 block are much stronger, but they don't use hydraulic roller cams, just like boss blocks. You can definitly find a old 302 block at petrys junk yard in westminster.

DAmn are you trying to get some RPM outta that next motor aren't ya Tim! But like the guy about said they are out there but to find one would take loads of phoning around the all the junk yards within miles of where you live, just start calling the wreckers one by one. If you can't find one that way Dart is the only way out, plus they have 4 Bolt mains, and all round beefy block!

save the Boss blocks for the collectors and get your self a R-block or a Dart block the R@ the Dart are better then the boss blocks anyway for strength

Last Boss block I saw for sale anyplace was a couple years ago and they wanted $2500 for a VERY used short block.
They got it too, in about 2 days.
I'd get the World block and be done with it, it's new, not 35+ years old too....
