What do you guys think of the price? Seems a little high for a two bolt block, no casting numbers and no mention of a flywheel for balancing.

No mention of head casting #s, or anything internally other than the cam. (Compression ratio, crankshaft forged or cast, what rods, what pistons, what hardware, etc...)

Could be a good deal if it has decent heads and forged internals... don't really know from the ad though.

That is a decent price if he can produce a dyno sheet, or if he's just referring to the output because it was built up similar to a tv build... that won't cut it.  It is complete from carb to pan too.

Sounds like a similar build to the 460 I had in the green '72, and it dyno'd at 425 hp, and 435 ft. lbs of torque.  It was a fun engine in front of the 4 speed.
