😂 looks like Cam had fun. I feel his pain. The clear water is a good indicator that the oil kept the oxygen from rusting everything up.

[@AutoRestoMod]

Agreed

[@the_Southlander]

Hi guys, that number at the rear of the block ending in 010, indicates a 4 inch bore only, so dependant on crank could be 302,327 or 350 as standard....

[@AutoRestoMod]

Agreed the engine van on the front of it let me know what was a 350. Speculation is that someone bought an LT1 service block

[@GeekGinger]

Yep, if it was an original LT1 or something then it would be worth saving, but a regular 350? She dead.

[@AutoRestoMod]

I feel like the block is worth saving

[@the_Southlander]

Ha, drain the sump first next time, plus remove the sump before the timing cover boy, you aint wrenchin on a ford now....

[@AutoRestoMod]

Well, if there hadn't been 40 gallons of water in the engine, it wouldn't have mattered lol.

[@Paulie1232]

Cam is a real man, no gloves 😊

[@AutoRestoMod]
