2 bolt or 4 bolt block

2 bolt or 4 bolt block

4 bolt. It was a fresh engine that some crap went through. Scored crank and cam bad. The rest is good. I got it in trade deal. I keep it around just because you never know what I might drag home.

As I wait for the new backing plates for my 12 bolt rear to show up in the mail
I decided to start my 20 over 6 inch rod 350 build
Eagle crankshaft and rods
H140CL sealed power piston
Managed to find myself a real nice nodular iron cap 010 casting 350 block had it honed to 20 over
Checked the balance of the rotating assembly

That's nice. I'm jealous of that. I have stock rods, stock crank std bore with cheap flat tops...

What's going on/in it for heads cam and intake?

Don't forget early '70's "performance" blocks, My L48 rebuild uses that block & has 4 bolt mains too.

Tin nickel or nickel? The high nickel content rings a bell. What's the significance of that?
