Gas or diesel? Either way, a good block from a salvage yard should be no more than $500. Tons of them around. If it"s a gas, the C-221 engine would have been original, but you can use a C-263, C-291, or C-301 block. D-236 is the original diesel, but you could use a D-282 or D-301 block. I"d recommend staying away from the 301 blocks, as they are sleevless. As long as you are replacing the block, you might as well do a full overhaul, which could cost upwards of $5000 for a diesel depending on how much machine shop and fuel system work it needs. I would highly recommend having any engine work done by somone who really knows IH engines, as these early six-cylinders can be touchy about a few things, like how the sleeves fit into the block.
