Just got an email back from the seller. He's sending out another 6.0 shortblock. I'm happy! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Default Crap! Thought I had a good 6.0 block...

After closer inspection, I found a chunk of my block missing at the bottom rear. Does the oil pan bolt to this part of the block?

Bought the engine off ebay here:

I emailed the guy but haven't heard back yet. Hopefully he'll make it right.

I should of just got a new 6.0 block from GM. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

If you lived close to me i would weld that sucker up and machine it so it would work for you. Someone close should be able to weld it and do the machine work.
