RE: Looking for trashed big blocks
Maybe try this guy....he answers a lot of things in the OS Engine forum. He probably won't be too pleased with me dropping his info here, but I bet he has a lot of trashed stuff around from returns....

RE: Looking for trashed big blocks
I have a block from a force 32, busted the crank pin and the piston blew a hole thru the bottom. JB welded the hole and bought a new crank, it ran fine for another quart of fuel before connecting rod split. Very powerful engine, but I won't own another one after this. I've been running nitro for almost 20 years and it is the only motor that has given me these issues. You can have it. The piston and sleeve are stuck in it pretty good, will have to pound the sleeve to get it out of there.
