LOL. I wish ! No the block is from a 79 3/4 ton Scottsdale, but all the components will be updated and hi-performance . Going to build it for torque !

Nice! I love the Chevy big blocks. I had a Chevelle with it's original 396. Dummy me sold it many years ago.

Good luck, I could never do it. I hate any work on cars. I don’t even like checking oil

I had to install a radiator once in my former Dodge pickup. I wanted to kill myself in the process. Can't stand working on vehicles. I'd rather pay and have someone else have the aggravation lol
