DW,

This guy has the same blocks on eBay, along with various 480. 499 and 467 distributors from time to time. Very few of his 6618 blocks turn up with VIN numbers pictured. Some of his offerings look pretty good, some a little suspicious.

He was the guy in the back building at the Feb. swap meet a couple of years ago with the $1500.00 467 and 266 '68 Z distributors. Humboldt, if I'm not mistaken.

Regards,
Steve
