If he knew what he was doing, he would have drained it all first so it wouldn't get in the cylinders.... Definitely keep looking!!

Where are you at? I've got about a dozen 302 and 5.0 short blocks in my out building. I'd be willing to trade a few for some FE stuff. Blocks, heads, cranks, intakes, etc. I can never have too much FE stuff. As far as the condition of the engines goes, they're stored indoors. A few of them I bought, a few I got for free, and some I got as payment for work performed. None are cracked or damaged. I also have 2 complete 5.0 roller engines (minus computer) and 6 complete carbed 302's. I used to be into small block Fords but I'm into FE stuff now. Nothing makes power like an FE. None of it's really for sale but I will trade small block parts for FE parts. I also have about 2 dozen carbed and fuel injection intakes and about 15 pairs of heads. I'm really after a 427 SOHC, but then again who isn't. If you have one I'll trade all my small block stuff and my first born for it.
