Just got done pulling the 400 that came in my 74 swinger. Previous owner had swapped it in (not very cleanly I might add disgust). The lug on the bottom drivers side (below the starter) used for bolt to trans got broken off before I got to it, rust etc on the broken area. Before I bother to finish stripping the block down and send it out to be checked I wanted to get opinions on this being a long term issue. I can get a pic tonight if needed
I kinda think not as the starter bolts also provide clamping force in this general area.
Intentions are to build a 470CI stroker/727/D60 combo if that makes any difference
