contact.. Joesoldcars in NewYorkState. Joe knows a good engine rebuilder in the area. Personally..I think you should purchase a 33/34 engine to be consistent with your car...In the long run..this will keep you car true to the age it was built in and increase the value of your car.

Ideally, you should try to install a '36 'LB' engine as there are few rebuilders who pour Babbitt bearings these days. The original engine in a '33 had Babbitt bearings....

If you are not concerned about authenticity of your car you should go with a 1936 engine without Babbit bearings. These bearings you can replace yourself and there should be plenty of 1936 motors out there, more than 33/34 engines. But in reality, Good Babbit bears should last you for the life of your car. So once you get your engine rebuilt the babbit bearings will outlive you.
