Going for 239 is working to if you want more displacement.
If the block is not badly rusted itīs a keeper !!
Will these blocks go out for 239? If so it has real potential. There is no rust on this block. As I understand it this was a truck application, hence the factory relieving. I was thinking the only use for this block was if someone wanted to fit a Supercharger. The question then becomes how far can it be bored.
