Default Re: Found 401m??

Ok so I went to today and verified that the motor I was looking at is a 401m. Sad part is that it is locked up. I put the trans in neutral and put a socket and long breaker bar on balancer and was not able to move it. For the price I think I'll still get it. Since the trans is still attached not able to verify that it has a 6 bolt crank. What's the chance it has something else or is there just the one crank style. It has a Clark 282v 5 speed in it. Not sure if that really maters as far as crank goes. Read several threads on gaskets but what I understand is that everything is same as 305 except for head , intake and exhaust. What about internal parts I.e. main and rod bearings and cam bearings. There is several listed on eBay but they are listing all v6 engines using the same. Very few actually say just 351 and 401. About what would it cost to rebuild the motor
