looking for used 455 long or short block Chicago area

Looking for 455 short or long block near Chicago. It is for a friend who has a cracked block. Rather than replace the block he would rather start with a finshed used long or short block.

I have a 455 block from a 1970 toronado motor that i bought unassembled. I believe it is a virgin block. I live about 3 hours from you if your interested.
