Hey Phathom, I saw one on craigslist. It was in Portland OR just two days ago. Block casting date Oct 10 1968. I remember it because that is the very birthdate of my 1969 roadster. looked like a 300 horse stamp.

I have a 3932386 bare block 4 bolt 2482 nodular main. These nodular main blocks are correct for the L46 350 and the DZ 302) It is dated I-11-8. (Sept 11, 1968) I had dropped it of at my machinist a while back to have it tanked magnifluxed for cracks. He reported it came back clean no cracks. I told him to clean the bores and deck the surface to make it easier to sell. It is currently .030 over on the bores. Some cylinders do have a ridge. It will need to go either .040 or .060 depending of course how far out the bores are. I can sell it as is or wait for him to prep the block for a rebuild. These are heavy castings and a .060 bore is not an issue. I can strap to a pallet and ship terminal to terminal YRC for less than $200 depending on your location. If interested PM me. I also have a 3927184 intake manifold dated I-7-8. I am located in Oregon.
Thanks,
Norm

I have 386 block dated J 12 8---Thinking $350.00 plus the trip (likely less than $100.00)
Suffix code is HK (350/300 auto full size car)
do not know bore as it is a complete assembled engine
Let me know your interest and I will inspect/measure
excellent running engine when pulled from a '69 Vette I parted out
Have the 186 heads, front timing cover, oil pan, etc., etc

Hey Boswell, Do you still have this 3932386 block. It would work for my Oct 11 68 build L-46. I am also in Oregon. Thanks 69 Vette roadster.
