[AMC-list] 1963 Aluminum block 196

[Jason Tell <jatell@xxxxxxxxx>]

I bought a 1963 Rambler Classic 770 with the aluminum block 196. The head
gasket was blown. I had the head checked and it is cracked. Next step is to
pull the rest of the engine and take it to the engine shop. Based on what
they find, I will either rebuild the aluminum block engine, in which case I
need to find a new head that fits the aluminum block, or be in search of a
replacement all cast iron 196 engine.

I probably won't have the engine pulled and hear back from the shop for
another week or two but I thought I would get the word out in case anyone
has a good head for the aluminum block or a complete all cast iron engine
laying around.

Thanks,
Jason
