I totally agree with those who restuff blocks. With practice it takes three minutes to gut, clean, and restuff a block; resoldering is quick since the wiring and components don't need to be moved or stretched. It also makes future service much easier for techs who use the original diagrams- like me. When I see a Philco that has had a block-ectomy, I stay clear.
