OOoh, i know the secret!!! They where rusty seasoned blocks!!! If you through your dart block outside during winter it should be good for another 150 hp when you machine it!

Nobody ever said that GM was better than DART you did, Mr DART sellsman.

Why not just go ahead and quote the man? Instead you just read what you wanna read and then twist the words around.

I believe it was said that 600hp would be pushing the envelope, not a reccomendation, dip $hit.

Cudos on fessing up to being a smarta$$ ~> we never knew.

Default GM bowtie

Hey Carl,
By the way we are on the deep deal on the GM Bowtie blocks as well.

How does the Bowtie compare to the SHP block, money wise and reliability? I know that NASCAR uses them and are making over 800 HP with them.

Just curious,

Zip.

The Bowtie with billet caps is probably a better peice then the SHP and the GM Bowtie block has more nickel.

NASCAR has not used the Bowtie blocks for years as the are using the newer R07 blocks with the dist. in the front of the engine now.

The Bowtie blocks are a lot of money over the SHP blocks and GM is doing away with a lot block P/N in the near future.
