806 block in a 560. What to do?

Posted by Farmall Daddy on December 01, 2003 at 13:32:22 from (209.163.43.145):

I priced a reconditioned 806 block, and it comes out to $1500. This block would have the new sleeve assembly, along with all the new bearings, and bushings in the block itself. Would it be a good idea to go this route, rather than bore the motor out? I need to overhaul it before the next pulling season, and would like some helpful tips that wouldn't be too exspensive. I was thinking this way would be cheaper, and take the head, carb, and manifold off, along with all the other stuff, and put it on the 806 block. Would this work pretty good if I were to go this route? Also, would I have to change the radiator to keep it cool? Thanks for any advice guys!!
