How does NHRA let you handle the difference in main journal size?

Seems to me that the Dart legal replacement block is available with a 4 1/8th bore and the 350 main size. That would be the starting place for the most overkill 305 you never did see! It probably would weigh as much as a 454 block.

Dart has announced that they are reintroducing the 305 block. No idea when they will be available. The shop I work at had ordered 10 o them.

On the ride down about daybreak I woke up with the symptoms of a cold. It just ruined the trip. I did get a quick tour of Don P machine shop in Hammond La. It was clean, well lit, and with top notch equipment and experienced techs. If you live in La. all of the experts don’t live out of town.
