Re: WTB BBC 396 Bowtie Block
Thanks Jim. I know it is a long shot, but I thought I would try. My only hesitation with the Dart is the weight. I am not sure the gain in HP, if any, from the Dart is enough to justify the extra weight, so I may just go down the route of a sleeved 454.

I have a set of standard 396/375 pistons if you're interested.

Just put eight sleeves in a 454 block and fill it . That will give you the wall thickness and stiffness you are looking for and not weigh a lot.
