Default Re: 59AB flathead with 3 1/16 bore question!

I thought all 46-48 motors were 239's til I found this one. I thought he seller made a mistake and measured wrong. Then I read Van Pelts page about some post war 59AB's being bored to 221 as replacements. Since it's a raised 59 number in the bell block I figured they used the same rods etc. but just bored it to 221. Block should be the same as a 239 so I should have tons of meat
