340 engine blocks

(3) 340 engine blocks:

1: June 67 block. No Main Caps. I had this bored 30 over and decked before the shop that did the work found the caps I had would not work.
Some rust is starting in the bore and on bore has a heavy spot, so it would take more machining for clean up. I am not sure how much would clean it up. The lifter bores have rust.

2: July 1970 block. The bores have some surface rust and the there is rust on the deck and in lifter bores. The bores are approx. 20 over.. (I measured 7 at 10 over and one at 20. One of the trans mounting tabs is broke off.
This block has unknown caps. I got this block and the one below together and the guy had the caps together in a box. I can try and match them as best as I can, but no guarantees.

3: May 72 block. The bores are standard size. All machine surfaces have heavy surface rust so would most likely require 30 plus over to clean up.
Main cap issue the same as number 2 above.

$200 apiece obo.
Pictures avaiable.
Located in Marshall, MI. I can ship if you are not in a big hurry to get them.
Email oemsg@aol.com with any questions.

Thanks
Mike
