[TPR] Fw: THE ALUM BLOCK FOR SALE : Happy Veterans Day !

[Steve Lisa]

I may be interested, but right now sitting on a pretty good iron block
built by SRE out of Tucson and there is no way they would let me race Group
3 vintage with an Aluminum block.  But, it may be fun to try!!!!  Need to
know the bottom line price -- no dickering.  Just let me know the price.

Regards,
