Hi,
I have 2 Chris Craft 1968 427" hydraulic side oil blocks. The owner wants $2500. Junk junk junk. The raw water coolings corrosion has wasted 2 blocks with cylinder walls as thin as .095". I know I could sleeve them down from 4.230" bore to 4.050", but then it wouldn't be a 427" Ford... What do with 2 FE 427 side oiler engines that are junk???? All baked clean and sonic checked...
