Larry,

I don't have any C8AE-H heads in my shop, but I bet within about 2 hours I could have one. They are pretty much common as dirt around here in the junkyards on 390's. I already sent money to DSC for a head core (plus some other goodies I was needing)

I would still be interested in your block if I had not already sunk almost $350 in pistons and rings for this block. I welded the various cracks and got it to hold a pressure test, bored it +.060" and a couple of bores still don't look all that great. The owner has seen it and says he's OK with it, but I'm not sure how well it's going to work. I'm pretty sure he will burn a little oil in 2 cylinders, but it's not a race motor so if he keeps a few spare spark plugs I guess he'll be alright.....
