[WANTED] ‘68 340 block

I have a dozen that are all sonic tested and magged (Beware of
cracks in the bottom roll of head bolt holes), Many sonic tested
and acid washed - $750 to $1,250 depending upon if std./020/030.
Shipping would kill you from Nevada unless you put several on a pallet
and trucked them to spread the cost.
My mom ran a wrecking yard and these are the best of the probable 50
that came through there the last Century.
You are shopping for a block cast in 68 that may be in a 68 or 69 Mopar
OR
A 67 or early 68 casting block that would be correct for only a 68 Mopar?

Thanks John:car is ‘68 GTS. What do u have available for that? My block is cracked. Also had wrong heads on it. Am willing to travel. Brian
How bad and where is the crack? If it's an original block to the car then possibly repair it ? Even if it isn't might be cost effective seeing as you have everything. Just thinking out loud.
I'm in the swap meet at moparty Kentucky and saw a bare 68 340 block with main caps. 9*10*68 is the casting date . Asking $650 . I'll pm you the dudes phone number.

Cracked inside and out.probably repairable but no guarantees. Also had wrong heads on it. Everything else is likely correct. Casting date on block is 6.21.67. Thanks for responding
