WTB BBC 396 Bowtie Block
 

I am looking for a nice 396 Bowtie block to build a stock 396/375. I would prefer no damage or sleeves. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

Buy a Dart and be done.Very few 396 bowties ever made. Jim Hanig

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.
