Block choice

J.R. Haddad · 10-08-2016, 07:56 AM

Carl, it is for a Stocker. The 3 accepted choices are Bowtie, Dart, and
World Products. The World Products block requires additional work
to get it to where the other 2 are. So that leaves Bowtie or Dart, and I
was hoping to get opinions on those 2 from people that have had some
Stocker experience with both. Thanks, J.R.

What work would a World block need that a Dart or Bowtie would not need?

J.R., Matt and Jason at Victory Engines in Marshall, Mn. just did a new Dart SHP for me.
The priority main oiling is great. The lifter bores come undersized and need to finished honed to the appropriate size....a good feature. There is a balance between between lifter style (where the oil hole is relative to the band), pushrod cup oil hole diameter, pushrod oil diameter, etc. so you don't get excessive oil upstairs.

I got my Dart from CNC Motorsports in Brooking, SD http://www.cnc-motorsports.com/

I'm sure the Bow Ties are great, as well. -Al

JR, If you decide to go with a Bow Tie I have an older Bowtie that is still in the crate. The customers project didn't get going. It is for sale. The Bow Tie is what I have used on several projects like yours.

I have both a shp and a Bowtie, both good
Blocks but you pay a wt penalty with the Bowtie
As its about 30-35lbs heavier.
