    DART SHP LTx blocks

     



    I'm sure many of you are aware of the Dart SHP blocks being made for the sbc and sbf engines, but we are trying to get them to build a LT type block to replace the now, non supported GM part but also in a 4.125 bore size. These engines were used in the 92-96 C4 vettes and 92-97 Camaros, Firebirds, Impala SS, Buick Roadmaster and Cad Fleetwood.

    Go to www.dartheads.com, sign up and vote in the poll for it along with leaving some constructive comments

    This block would be 4.125 bore, spayed 4 bolt mains, two piece rear seal,and take all the LT accessories for a stock looking engine bay in those vehicles and also be a nice package for a hotrod( I have 96 in my wifes 33 ford)

    Thanks

    Jerry

    Hey Jerry, have you guys done much with the 9.5 Ford block yet???? Wondering how well one would stand up at the 4.125 bore and a decent sized crank??? Also, saw in the film that the stroker clearance is already done on the SBC block for a 3.750" crank, do you know what the Ford block will take without additional clearancing???? If I got it right off the video, all the block needs prior to assembly is hone and clean????

    Learning must be difficult for those who already know it all!!!!
