Yeah if its a 660 block, you want to try and stay away from them. Unless they have been rebuilt and are known to be good.
At least 2/3 of them have webbing cracks bad.
Is there any orange/red pant on your engine?
If you have an orange/red 82 block so you likely have a high Ni alloy block and those are highly saught after by 6.2L builders.
I'd say rebuild it, thats a good engine, or at least a good block.
