How do you know if a block is stolen before you buy it? Buying off of someone soon, helps appreciated.

 

No real way to tell unless it is a newer block with a vin number on it. If it appears to have had the vin removed, or if you run a carfax on the vin and it comes up stolen, there is a good chance is was stolen. Very rarely are these types of cars stolen without being stripped at least of the swap. Good luck!

 

thanks, its a b18c1 for the matter

 

If its a '94 or '95 its not going to have a vin...'96 - '01 will have one.
