I'm looking at building a 289 for my 66. I'll need a block to start with. Is there a difference between a hi-po block and a 289 2v block?
If a 289 2v block is good to use, I still have the original engine. Problem with it though is it's been sitting out in the rain and snow for 27 years, with one valve cover off. The oil pan is actually starting to rust through. Do you think a rusted block and crank can be salvaged?
