I'm the buyer. I've used this site for a very long time and never noticed that there was a forum. I guess I always went straight to the info links. I "Discovered" this last night. I am very glad I did. The block is going into my L-78 collection, but I hope it can someday be reunited with it's mate.

Congrats!
If you get a chance, I'd be interested in a better picture of the engine pad for this block. :)

I will see if I can get some tomorrow.
