My new to me slightly used burb

[tobiahr]

i've had two that i found cracks on. thats out of about 20 so odds are in your favor. one had cracks in block where crank attached to flexplate and trans attached. other had a crack just below the drivers side head.that one hit a telco pole and had the radsupport intertwined with all of the accesories so it was a worst case senario, but it is still something i always check when swapping engines. besides a 350 rebuild kit is cheaper than the time it takes me to replace the engine again and gives me the added peace of mind
