Are you racing this GT350, street use, or show? I have several original 289 HiPo motors including early 5 bolt motors. If you are going to race buy a new block and change over, street use or show buy a standard bore 289 block and install your HiPo main caps and allign bore for the crank. There are always 289 standard bore short blocks or bare blocks for sale on Ebay. If you ever sell the car you can explain and since the block is correct casting with hiPo mains, rods, crank and other parts it should not make a big difference. Sorry, my HiPo blocks are all in cars and NOT for SALE.
