Tomahawk block

Any news or updates on the blocks that were ordered under the sale?

 

Was Talking to Tim while ordering parts a few weeks back and asked the same question. As of that time they didnt have the blanks in but were expecting to have the orders complete by late spring / early summer. He said they sold 23 of the 25 allotted units for the sale. Thats pretty good for us and them.

 

Thanks for checking in.Been kinda quiet since we ordered them

 

I was told July..

 

If you don’t want to wait check the for sale section. Tom

 

I contacted TA yesterday via email, very prompt response and Sherri said That The foundry is still working on the blocks and will be done in March. After that, they go to the machining process which takes about six weeks.

So this works for me I am still looking at July. I have ordered my internals and awaiting the Bob weight to order the crankshaft.

My next chunk will be the heads. Hopefully, the 54mm cores will be available by Christmas

 

No problem waiting Tom.Besides I already committed and sent my part to T/A.

 

No problem, this would be a great deal for somebody who wants to go racing this summer this short block is complete minus a camshaft all machine work and balancing done. All parts are very high-quality.Tom

 

Call me the noob, but is this the aluminum block I've been reading about? I'd love to build one for my riv, but the wife insists we buy stupid things like food, and shoes and stuff for the kid.

 

Yes

 

Is tbere an aftermarket block branded wildcat or is that just heads.

I applaud you guys who are getting a tomahawk block, good luck on your cars guys .

 

I believe Ken Betts has branded his new to come block Wildcat.
