Default BOSS 351C block

Hi everyone,

I have found a BOSS 351C block that I can buy. They ran the numbers and it is a '70-'74 4 bolt block. I was wondering how much someone would typically pay for one of these?

351c blocks are the same.

the only difference is if they drilled them for 2 bolts or 4 bolts. I would also not recommend paying a premium price to someone saying they have a Boss Block from 1970 to 1974 since the Boss 351 was only available for 1 year anyway.

I've bought all my 351c blocks for $200 or less when I needed one.

Mbh292- I don't have anything to put it in right now. Thinking I could use it to bribe the wife into getting something that it will fit in.

1Mach1- I don't have the numbers, I am going to pick up my block today I will try to get the numbers.
