When I purchased the car several years ago, the head had been removed and it looked as if water had gotten into the oil. I found a rebuilt head at one of the swap meets for $80 so I purchased that since I wanted to start with a semi-fresh engine. I still have the block but it has been exposed to the elements and I saw some water sitting on top of the pistons after our recent storm. My plastic sheeting must not have held up. Maybe that block is salvageable. I'm just not sure. The '66 200 engine was another good deal but I should have researched it's application more before purchase. I could also go the manual transmission route. So many choices with so little time (and money!). Craig
