Bought a Sprint Car steering box, Set it off to Profile to be rebuilt. After a day or two Profile called the steering box was junk and not worth rebuilding. On the hunt for a steering box again.

Free LS 5.3 Engine. Mike called to say that he had picked up a free LS 5.3 Engine. The engine was said to have a slight knock.

I got it home and disassembled and discovered it had three spun main bearing and a fryed block journal. The block is now extra weight in the back of my plow truck
