I'm going to tell the wife to hide my computer now.

Jeezus! I'm in the East Bay. I could zip down there an drive back up with that bad boy. Now I just need 5 grand....

[EB3-GranCoupe]

Wow, I could use this, and the W-2 heads & manifold.....and i could use $6600 to buy it all.

Pretty much the ulimate small block casting , you can drill for 6 bolts / cylinder & use W8 or W9 heads & make 800 hp

[Shane Kelley]

I'm curious. What's the castings on the side say?

[SassyAAR]

Here are the numbers on it:

[Shane Kelley]

Thank you. Not that it matters I was just curious if they actually said 340 on them. Looks like that's a no.

@Shane Kelley You could add this to your 340 collection.

@Shane Kelley You could add this to your 340 collection. 

I might have considered it if it said 340 on it!

Is this the same as the (TA) casting ? If not , which is better?

Not same

Yes stronger in all ways... also heavier

Don't know why max bore is 4.08. Was there another non-siamese with bigger bore range?

[gzig5]

I'm pretty sure I've read of these going 4.125  or a little less. I could be thinking of the Ritter block though.  But 4.08 is only a .040 over 340 so I would hope there is more meat in there than that.  I'd love to have one but I'm holding out for someone to do an aluminum smallblock.
