I was in the process of teardown and cleaning on the core I was rebuilding and found that the crankcase had been weld repaired above one of the pair of lifter bores; thusly it is no longer useful to me for anything other than a mockup engine case. I put some pics of this up on Flickr in case anyone is curious:

Might anyone have a line on where we could locate another core in Northern IL/Chicagoland area? The engine need not be running or pretty, just complete and in halfway decent shape. It's going to be completely torn down and overhauled. Any help would be most appreciated.
