So apparently "a freind" of mine doesn't now how to read and picked up the wrong engine for the class he is building a car for. I could really use any leads on a 302 gmc inline six at a fair price. I know the term "fair" and 302 don't really fall into the same sentence, but I... I mean my freind, would really like to track one down. Thanks in advance for any info!

Caddy Lasalle is in the same class..... :evil:

Did you see the eBay auction that just ended? Bidding went up to $18,800 and didn't meet the seller's reserve! It had to be the most rare GMC engine I've ever heard about. Not just any old(!) 12-port aftermarket head, but the aluminum version that Howard Johansen developed. It made 355 dyno HP n/a on alcohol with 297 c.i.- back in 1952! Only 10-12 of these heads were made. The Howard head on the eBay engine (in Paola, KS) had also been "massaged" by legendary head porter Joe Mondello at some point in time.
