L72 COPO block.  Originally out of Cincinnati area.  I have the engine. Just wondering if the car is out there somewhere.

Matt,

Are you in Cincy area?

Jimmy,

No, I am in NW Indiana, near Chicago.

I just bought this engine from a guy in the Cincinnati area.  Shipping records from NCRS show it was shipped to a dealership in Cincinnati.  The name escapes me right now, as the paperwork is at home.

I don't have anything on the car.
I remember the block was on ebay with a trans. Decked, but still a 427 block. :)

I now own the engine.  Worked out a good deal.  Putting the engine into my Yenko clone.
