Guys here is a listing for a 428 block I can pick up for 650.  Should I keep looking or should I buy this?

The following work has been done:
All cylinder bores measured to STD 4.13"
Gasket surfaces cleaned
Lifter bores honed
Block magnafluxed with no cracks detected
Entire block hot tanked
The main caps are all included. The date code on the block is 9C1 and the partial vin on the backside is 9U158031. The block has the well known "C" on the backside of it and has the extra thick cylinder walls which were measured with the 15/64" drill bit in the freeze plug holes. The block does have a sleeve in two of the bores from a previous owner. If any additional details are requested I can have the machine shop check for them.

Thanks,

Tim
