Re: 305 Canadian block ?
The 305 Canadian block I have in Sharons car has a thicker main webbing than the other two bolt blocks that I have seen. Also the block is about .20 to .30 thicker in the cylinder areas that other blocks. All the GM guys I used to work with that poured them said they were made thicker due to the colder conditions up north. This also applied to the 350 blocks too. Most of them that I checked always had one or so cylinders out of whack that had some core shift, but they were all thicker than a reg block.

Re: 305 Canadian block ?
Not to go off topic but there was a thread back in 2007 about using a sleeved 350 block for a 305. Does anyone have any updates on whether you can run a 4 bolt main 350 block thats sleeved? Chances are I'll just fill my 305, just curious though.

Re: 305 Canadian block ?
I don't know about those Canadian blocks. They might sound funny,eh ?
I went to buy a flooded generator at a business, that a natural gas 5.0 GM engine, because they supposedly were 4 bolt blocks. It was gone by time I got there, so I didn't get to find out if it was true or not.
