It is how he is. It is in a 78 Valore Road Runner of all cars too. 408 stroker, aluminum heads, etc. Been together since the 80's -90's ish. I offered a replacement block, pay for machining, etc. Nope. His whole family is on board that the right thing to do is get it back to me. Nope. All I want is the block. He can keep the rest. The only number I ever got from him is $5K. Sorry, not paying your ransom I will wait for you to die first then talk to the family.
