This is the original, numbers matching engine from my '69 Cutlass S. It had a 2bbl intake and I swapped to a 4bbl in 2015. I pulled this engine in December 2021 and it's been stored indoors since that time. The engine ran well but used a lot of oil, specifically in cylinder 7. In my opinion it's the perfect candidate for a rebuild and, if my car was100% original, I'd have done just that. I sourced a 73 block so she wouldn't be down for an extended period of time. The distributor, thermostat housing, and vacuum switch in the engine are from the '73 and are only there to keep debris out. $400.

Good point. NE TN isn't very specific. Johnson City TN area, not far from either I-81 or I-26.
Local pickup is best. I have a cherry picker and can load the engine in a pickup, trailer, etc. Shipping is possible but would require a lot of research & some kind of pallet.
