I have a rare 1965 4 bolt 425 hp SHP 060  block that i stumbled on trying to build a motor for my jetboat. I did not know what it was till the machine shop told me........casting #3855962 I did my research and found out it original.... So im asking $2,000.  It is in the machine shop getting new cam bearings tanked and honed, then i will have pics :D  I have seen this block go as high as $3,950 on another site. And yes a Block, i still cant believe it.......... This is a good block for that chevelle, camaro, or vette you are trying to restore :good

Ok, first it's "BHP"(Brake Horse Power)not SHP and it's a 396 and it's 375 BHP, it was rated 425 BHP in the Corvette "only"(Why, I don't know it was the same motor). It came in 2 models, the L-78 and L-89!. The L-78 came with closed chamber iron heads!. The L-89 was a limited production deal with closed chamber aluminum heads, and I believe it was available only in the Camaro and ChevyII!..

3855962....396.......65-66...4-bolt

I can get a brand new Dart block shipped to my door for $2000!. Thank you Barrett-Jackson for fockin up the whole Hot Rodding world!.. :beat  :beat  :pissed

But best of luck selling it!.. :good  :beer

The Thing That May Make It More Valuable To Someone, Is They May Be In Need Of A G.M. Block With That Production Date, Or Close To It. I Know That A Friend Of Mine Looked For Quite Some Time, And Had To Pay Alot For A 67 350 With A Pre Prodution Date Than The Camaro It's Going In. He Paid More For That Short Block Than He Could Have Bought An Incorrect Long Block....

http://dragracingonline.racingjunk.com/post/1086242/1965-Chevelle-Corvette-396-375HP-425HP-Block-.html

I have the same block :D
"IE  1965  396  425  Chevrolet  SHP" that was copy and paist from   Chevy Big Block Engine Suffix Codes for CID 396/402

BHP?? brake horse power,,,    Mine show's SHP  for Super High Performance block.   I have seen them all over ebay selling, and i was even lucky enough to talk to a dealer. he said dont give  it away it will sell to that guy builing a hot rod

Thanks for you'r input guy's i still cant believe its worth that much $$........ Its just a freakin block :stupid
