Here is a little more info on the engine.  I do not know its' history, 
acquired 20 some years ago with other parts. Bore looks stock at 3.28" 
and does not look scored.  Includes 2 extra piston sets, std and 20 over 
that are used but good.  Has manifolds and all major parts, including a 
good rebuilt rocker assy, welded up oil pan.  Cam may be issue, as it is 
a Elgin regrind that I used for a while, but did not like it, had poor 
low rpm power.  Engine # is 29K/RU/H 311.  Tag was taken off to prepare 
for cleaning that I didn't do.  Number indicates very early BJ8 engine.  
Jim mentioned $500 for one he sold, sounds OK to me.
