    Looking for a temporary engine for my buick, while i restore my tired original block to specs. Preferably mildly performance built. Big block, small block, which ever, as long as its a V8. Contact me with what you have (e-mail), looking in the $800 to $1500 candian dollars range, depending on what kind of motor it is. Thanks for the replies.

    p.s.
    Looking for an engine in or around (1-2hours away) Ottawa Ontario. Would be best if i could hear the engine run, if not, i will need receipts or something justifying that work (if any) was done to the block. Thanks

    I looked at a 72, 350. heard it run, sounded good. The guy wanted $400.00. It's in Port Bolster. That's east of hwy 12 on hwy 48. It's about 35 minuets from me. I can check his number and find out if he still has it if you like.
    Thanks Bruce

    Was it performance built or just a plane jane? Any idea of mileage? 2 or 4 bbl? If you arent sure you can give me his number i guess and i can give him a shout. Thanks bruce.

    Im hoping to get my hands on a big block, since im going through with a swap, but a performance 350 wouldnt be bad, power is what im after.

    It is a stock 350 / 2bbl. no idea of milage, he took it out of his GS and put in a 455 , ph. # 705-437-1177. Just phone him he's still got it. Give hin a call.
    BBB motors are really hard to find around here.
    Thanks Bruce
