The SHP block would save you about 600 dollars over a Little-M Sportsman block.
Here are some links on those blocks. http://speedtalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12112 http://www.chevelles.com/forums/showthread.php?t=237241 |
it's not that i get insulted.I do agree that a 421 is out of the ? But a strong 406 is a nice motor for the average guy running low 11's to low 10's .
what's the H/P limit,Is it 600hp 550hp? If you have a nice block. Splayed caps,studedmains ,studed heads,and rok block That motor that lost the mains (http://forums.racingjunk.com/viewtopic.php?t=8335)In this thread must have been making lots of power,But how much? |

WoW!!,
Carl 600HP, that's all Dart rates the SHP blk too. Now you got my curiosity up, what do they rate a Little "M" blk at, and what's the major difference in the blks. Zip. |

The SHP has less nickel content and does not have the heavy bulk heads on the front and rear and they have 3/8 outter splayed bolts and a little less cylinder wall as well. It will take the GM spider for HYD roller cam set ups |
So what block are the guys making 1200-2000HP sbc's suppose to be using? My friend has a 400 sbc Little M block with a blower. Has been running it for 4-5 years in his dragster no block issue's.
Runs 4.50's 1/8th 1900Lb Dragster. |
I read on the dartshp.com site the shp is good to 600 hp.
so i joined and asked what the maximum hp is . waiting for a answer |

The SHP has less nickel content and does not have the heavy bulk heads on the front and rear and they have 3/8 outter splayed bolts and a little less cylinder wall as well.

I also read on the dart forum that a few of the blocks have had main journal alinement issues,so they all have to be checked when you buy one
