block numbers

if the 53 block is bad, what other block numbers should you look for in a '01-02 .
lots of people prefer the 6 speed, is the automatic that much of an problem.

Most 01's & 02's are out of Mexico and will have multi digit numbers (smaller size numbers). These are all strong blocks, IMO.
