Re: Bowtie Block
No. GM quit producing them years ago. They do not have any iron blocks available.
As of now they can only cast the block. They have not setup a way to machine them. Until they have someone or some company that will machine them they are not an option.
Still looking...

I have known about this block for some time. It has some of the motor mount pad ground off as well as a couple other things that won't work for me. I appreciate you checking for me though...Thanks!

It also needs some slight modification to be used with an internal wet sump oil system. Also you have a PM.

The deck is bare with no head bolt/stud holes or cooling passages. Also the lifter bores are not drilled. Any machine shop can drill the holes. Not just any machine shop has to equipment to properly locate them where they have to be.
