Block #001309 will be going into my personal 10/10 white 1970 GSX. Jim Weise has been working on it's restoration. We are very excited and can't hardly wait to get the car running and back home. Looking at large cubic inch, hyd roller, fuel injected. Will have Michael Jr. post more as engine build starts. STD 10.570" deck ht, Buick cam tunnel, .842" lifter bore, 3.0" ford main line.
Pat, That one's gone... as are all the original 5 prototype blocks. The serial number works out like this. 001309 001- actual number of the block 309- Date the block was recieved by TA performance- in this case, March 2009. JW
Must be extremely tough to have 2 cars needing those sweet looking motors...Thank God for our friends at TA .... Jim, will you be be posting the results from the build of the motor you are doing? I am always impressed at the HP and Torque you get out of them. Was really hoping to see a Pro charged motor built from one of these blocks,or even huge HP that can be managed from them. I sit not so anxiously awaiting the results..
Yup.. check out the buildups, two (actually three but two are the same) of them from the shop here are alreading going in the Tomahawk block buildup forum. Will have plenty of pics, video and dyno info, for a NA 555 and a supercharged one. I will also be dynoing this one, after Mike builds it. JW
