Add does not say. It's off a Chrysler. Not a dodge. According to the seller it is a long block 25 inches as opposed to my short block 23 inches.

Have not posted in a couple weeks. Have been looking around for blocks with no luck except for 1.... but the length on the head is 25 inches compared to mine which is 23? Would this still fit? Or would I need to modify things?
-
Do you know the size by chance?
-
Ideas on turning this without having the 100mm socket????
-
How do I contact them? I dont have face book.
-
Good video. Very informative. I liked the oil part. And good tip on the water distribution tube ???
-
So brass wouldn't ruin everything if it accidentally stays in a port?
-
I have to take off all the accessories( distributor , carb linkage etc) before I can completely take off the head? I ask because I didnt want to take everything off but it's probably best to clean it up.
-
Amazing feedback. Thanks. I will look at everything over the weekend. I don't know how long it sat unfortunately. But I'm sure all this info will help.
-
Thanks. Yes, I am working on getting it loose. Just trying to have my options ready also ?
-
Can you shoot me the add?
-
@keithb7 I checked craigslist but havent seen any engines
-
Awesome. Will try all.
-
So does this look bad? Water in the bolt holes? What should I try next? Sorry. I know 0 on engines. Sorry guys.
-
Head is off. Managed without taking off all the accessories.
-
So based on this I'm guessing it's a 230 since its blank.
-
It was helping with the head bolts. Haha I'm guessing most of the aaccesaories need to come off because they are bolted to the side of the head.
-
Casting numbers I found
-
Will check that shortly. Thanks.

Not trying fo jump the gun. Just asking about options. I am open to anything fo get this running and driving safety at the lowest cost. Thus I really do appreciate everyone's input. If the motor turns after greasing it up then awesome. Direction to go has been decided. if its seized I'll try to see what the cost is to rebuild the motor. I saw a delux kit on kantar.com for about $1300. I will try to rebuild myself. The rear just scared me since its touching the floor. I hadn't noticed the lowering blocks. Thought everything had buckled. Too excited thus overlooking the obvious.

@Los_Control Thanks plan is to get the head off to take pics of the innards and maybe get some used tires so it wont be sitting on the shock and ubolt. I dont mind it low. Reminds me of my old vw beetle hahah. I was looking at the 4 link upgrade: https://www.streetrodengineering.com/products/triangulated-4-link-rear-suspension But not sure if it is overkill.

Driveline
-
Also guessing I should probably lube up all head bolts and hinges before I start trying to take them off? Or they are likely to break?
-
Sorry. I know some mechanical stuff but not 100% by driveline do you mean the driveshaft or is that different? I can try to get a pic.
