[Furback]

Found last weekend and have it at home. CE 396 L78. Shortblock, appears to have never been run. It is supremely coated in grease. It was in a crawl space under a house wrapped in plastic. Dated 72. 4 bolt, 3/8 dimple rods, forged pistons, 6223 crank. No sign of any heads ever installed, pistons are as new, no black on top, cross hatching in cylinders is very bold. Built in a 290 block. Odd. All the paint dabs are on the rod nuts across the caps etc. Nice find. I almost broke my back moving this out of the crawlspace.
