Carl,

The seller's statements seem to get interestinger and interestinger...

The engine is a 429. He mentioned it was a dart block.
I've searched and also gone to the Dart web site: http://www.dartheads.com/products/engine-blocks

I don't seem to find a Dart block available for the 429-460 (385 series) engines.

There are some aftermarket 385 series blocks available, but none of them come from Dart.

I'd redouble my efforts to make sure what's in that car, unless you're fond of surprises.

Tom
