Worth a darn?

Hey guys,

Just saw this on CL and e-mailed him to see if he would separate engine and trans. Looks like a 6.9 to me because of the oil fill tube. Is the block the same as the ford version of the IDI? would it be worth looking into? I will see if he responds and update with any info.

Those AT545s are supposed to be good transmissions, too. No overdrive but apparently can take 400+ ft-lb of torque.
