Default Sideoiler

Hi Guys, a friend of mine is on the lookout for a sideoiler block 66 or earlier for a project here in UK, I have had a call from a guy who has a very nice P seies block(69) which is pristine but too young to satisfy the criteria for the build, anyone know of any blocks/parts for sale right now, any info appreciated, and of course as always all the best for the festive period, and raise a glass for the troops doing there bit all over the world!!

Are you looking for a block in the UK area or the US as well?

I think the new genesis pond blocks have 1965 build date codes.

Anthony is correct...

I have a Pond Block (427 S/O Stroker to 482) with a 65 date code casting #... I love this motor Keith Craft built for me and I would highly recommend consulation with him on this...

The iron genesis blocks are externally identical to an OE 1965 block except for a couple very minor details
