    Actually what I have now is a five bolt hipo short block, rebuilt. I have pictures I will try to post of the build. Also a pair of hipo Heads....C3 castings.. any interest? we can discuss price. PM please

    Is this the same Hipo bare block but now made into a complete short block? This is not negative but just curious.

    This is a different engine. it will be next week before I can get the details.

    It is amazing how many 5 bolt Hipo blocks are floating around currently. I have three of them myself.

    The short block is date coded " 4D7", C40E-6015C of course. Assembly complete with cam, no dampner. Any offer considered. a nominal price tag of $2600. PM if you like..

    Is this a standard bore or oversize? Is the crank a standard sized Hipo crank?

    Duncan, Is this site sending you those Ebay updates? If it is, I do not know how to start or stop sending them or even if this site has that ability. I do know that I am not personally forwarding them to you. If this site is doing that I can research the issue and try to correct the problem. I know that notifications can be done on individual threads if you subscribe to them.
