newbie

just got my b2200 reg cab long bed couple weeks ago but now have to find a good block hair line crack in the #3 cylinder

Welcome to the site, have you found a block?

Not yet checked my local junk yard found one but Gunna wait till my mechanic brother in law can look it over

Ouch. Mine was cracked on #4:

Wow a lot worse than mine

Welcome to the scene!

Yep, massively abused engine. Bearings were pitted pretty badly, too. Seller had filled the cooling system with block sealer, when I got it flushed out it started overheating and puking coolant.

Given what the truck is worth, I should have just filled it back up with block sealer and sent it to the next sucker... but I just can't cobble things together that way.
