I'm curious of this block... it's made specifically for them? What's the dealio?

I thought you were talking about the SHP block.

It's made exclusively for them. I don't have all the specifics yet, but at approx. $1700 they appear to be a good deal compared to the Little M at least for my needs.

At that price I'm sure it'll be good for more power when you want to upgrade 6 months after you finish it. :D

I'm the exact opposite of that..... thus have a Dart Little M block -- Forged crank - great rods etc because I'm going to abuse the crap out of 'em as often as possible. Period.


Look into the Dart short block program.... simple and easy - cost effective.

Too bad Dart doesn't make rear ends for '32's :rofl:

Good advice there, from someone who'd been around the block.

Just a couple clicks and your order can be on it's way.

But the one he had was good for at least 500hp and some mild autocrossing:rofl: His rear should have been strong enough just like a lesser block should be good enough. Over engineer when possible, your gonna break stuff:D

Flash68 05-28-2012 11:52 AM

I looked at those Dart short blocks. Overpriced for what they are IMO.

Track Junky 05-28-2012 04:32 PM

Here's an option

Vegas69 05-28-2012 04:48 PM

Didn't your Nyes just come apart?

Track Junky 05-28-2012 05:32 PM

Good point. Get one with a warranty.

Vegas69 05-28-2012 05:45 PM

Engine warranties aren't worth the paper they're written on. Find the best engine builder and pay the man to do it right. If their was ever an instance where you get what you pay for, this is it. ESPECIALLY if you pound it on the track.

Track Junky 05-28-2012 05:48 PM

Cant argue that........I'll be taking motor apart on Wednesday. I'll keep you guys posted.

Father time is sneaking up on me so it's time to focus on a future adrenaline delivery system. :unibrow:

Is that Ca speedway?

Hey Sieg, I saw your motor at Vinces shop today :unibrow:

Today's the day........you may actually need it, and hopefully that's not the case. :_paranoid

That motor has a lot of nice components and appears to be a great deal. Vince appears to be a real good guy too. :thumbsup:

You southerner's have more names for one track than Oregon has tracks. :mad:

Though our good track (Oregon Raceway Park) does have a decent setting.

2.4 miles, 15 turns, and over 400' of cumulative elevation change with land to add another 2+ miles of faster track, and possibly circle, drag, and kart/supermoto accommodations in the future too. :thumbsup:

Vince, I didn't get a chance to get by the shop today, sick kids and doctor appointments........and I know better than to call. :D

I think your motor is very well set up, but the Ross low silcone pistons and solid roller cam are more than I need for how I'll realistically be using the car over the next few years.

As soon as I get a number from Springer we'll see if that shifts the tide. :_paranoid

But since we're talking realistic........Gaetano should have it for a spare. Beats getting your track fix as a corner worker. :unibrow:

Track Junky 05-31-2012 10:01 PM
