I had a HP 383 block, I sold finally and I mean finally for $90.   Looking back it was worth that much to simply keep it. 
I now have a 68 model 440HP block my ex father in law gave me to get it out of his Chevy dominated garage.   I wish I had 70 model HP 440 Block.     Who knows, you may get a $100 to $150 for it if your lucky.   Problem is unless the buyer is local, its not worth the freight charges to ship it.

If I sell off the S6 Chally, I guess I should just throw in the 70 HP383 block then, yes?

By the way, I sold off a '70 383 HP block for $250, and it wasn't in very good shape.  Ended up buying another one in better shape for the same price.   :dunno:

could give it to me. i like the 383s. If I was close to any of you and had the $$ i would pick them up as long as they were useable.
