A mystery 400 block in an '84 'bird isn't exactly worth a bunch of cash.....

That's my point as well.


WAYFAST FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY LEARN WHAT YOU ACTUALLY OWN. OTHERWISE PEOPLE WON'T PAY YOU WHAT IT'S WORTH, THEY WILL PAY YOU WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE IN THEIR EYES: THEY WILL ASSUME EVERYTHING IS IN CRAPPY CONDITION.

Which is a high mileage stock 400 with Vortec heads, aftermarket induction, a Th350 with a stock converter, a **** rearend, and the like.

If you want top dollar you need to prove it deserves top dollar. Only the dumbest buyers will "take your word for it" and they are few and far between at the caliber you need.
