After getting the second one to the machine shop , he tore the first oneapart
and found that it too was a good core. It will need boring and oversize crank
bearings, but it's sound.

My mechanic here is using a second block to build the new engine for my TR6, so
I have a block, head, crank, etc from my 72 that someone else could use.
Would you please pass this info on to the TR friends of yours that we've had
dinner with before the Gearheads Movie. They may have some interest or know
someone who does. They can feel free to pass my info on to other folks who
might be interested.
