The block is the backbone of the engine assembly. Careful selection will get you pretty far on your HP goal as Pontiac Dude (Kenny) said. Bill Jenkins used to talk about small subtle difference in SB Chebby blocks he would look for. With the nice selection of cast iron and aluminum blocks for sale for the Pontiac we at least have a good starting point now. Not a Brad Anderson part for sure, but still a start. It would be nice to post the "Good Blocks" but then the swap meet guys would be asking an arm and leg for them just like the old casting number 37 "ram air" heads vs good old "D-ports" Not much changed in those heads either.
