Default Engine Block - What do you think? (No 56Kb!!)

I have this paper weight on my desk for the past year and I must say it does make a nice paper weight, but since winter is here, and I would love to build my own engine I thought I would take a few pics and post them on C5 Tech to see what you guys thought of the condition.

History:

I bought this a year ago from a guy and said is already machined and ready to go. It is a Iron Block +.04 overbore which would yield a 410 CID. I would love to do a 410 CID +200 shot and stick with a 6 speed (I love grabbing gears)

It has sat on my desk and I have periodically oiled it with 10w/30.

Tell me what you think....I might sell it cheap or build a 410

Can't tell much about a block by looking at it. I will say this, the hone job doesn't look real good, at least IMO.

Kind of what I was thinking. It might needs some more clean-up

I'll agree on the hone job thing....4th pic down, 1st cylinder on the left hand side...looks like pitting in the cylinder wall on the bottom side.
