455 Core for Mild Street Rebuild

UPDATE: I picked up a core engine this weekend, so I'm set now.

+++

I decided it's time to ditch the stock 307 in my '82 Custom Crusier and go the route of a pre-emissions 455 build. I'm based in St Paul, MN, and after
talking with Ken at Total Engine about my plans for the build, I was going to check in with him in a couple days to see if he had any leads on a core. In
the meantime, I wanted to put some feelers out here for anyone who may have parts for sale. Ideally I'm looking for as complete of a motor as I can get to start
since I'm aiming for a mild/relatively stock street build.

Willing to drive a couple states over to pick up parts, or if absolutely necessary, pay for freight shipping.

Thanks.
-Jim

I have this one in NM, I have shipped engines across the country by freight. Can put on "C" or "E" heads in place of the "J" heads with any pre emissions stock intake you want or a Torker.
