Jegs, only place that had one that was in stock. They have a few others showing end of May or end of July shipment. The one I ordered was an ATK one. Also Jegs was best price, some places want $2,700 for a long block plus a $800 core charge! One I ordered was $2,100 for long block and a $400 core. They are all stupidly priced now though. Just a couple years ago you could get a nice reman 350 for less than $2,000 including core charge. Sucks but I'll have more power and better reliability now. Plus while taking stuff off this 305, it became more apparent how poor of shape it was in when draining all the fluids.
