That is almost hard to believe.

No part of this story or the actual find was embellished or made up and am only repeating what I was told. That being said, I would have to agree with you and found it hard to believe myself especially being a multi car owner himself. My tech was there on the first visit and Don Stowers on the second to back everything up.

It’s a million to one shot, of course it is hard to believe :-)

Got my block back from the machine shop today. Very nice original MQ paint code still intact. Also found a "C 3 0" written on the front driver's side of the block. The engine was assembled on January 23rd so it is not a casting or assembly scribble.
