What is the difference between a "hemi" block and a regular RB block? I know about the cross bolts on the mains. Is that all or are there differences in the way the heads attach?

Just curious...

A Hemi has bosses in the valley for additional head studs. Nuts are put on the studs from inside the valley. Here is a pic:

I am curious as to why. Can you elaborate?

I have one and wonder if I should actually use it, now.

I talked to them at the PRI show. They said when Chrysler almost went into bankruptcy they took the molds back and that was that. He told me if I needed a block to walk over to the Bill Mitchell booth. So I walked over there and they told me all they were making was the aluminum blocks with no raised cam available.

Yeah what he said. Do not worry about them, they are great blocks. Check your oil restrictor as some are not drilled. Easy fix in building not so much when assembled.

I'm guessing that's Tom.

I think he said he had 9 new pre World M/Perf blocks that he was planning on selling.


Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol

Good luck getting one in either CI or Aluminum right now. No new CI ones are available from anyone that I know of. The aluminum, you can order a KB or an Indy...but not a World block. I believe they are done with making them due to a contract issue with Mopar if I am not mistaken...

The HEMI Block has 4 differences. #1,there are oil drain holes cast into each outside corner of the blocks (4 total) for the heads to drain the oil back into the pan. #2, the intake head bolt hole is cast further into the lifter gallery
#3, the push rods on a HEMI block are cast closer to the cylinder bore than on a wedge motor.
#4, And all Hemi blocks had 1/2 inch oil feed galleries.
That is it.

On the World block the oil passage to the heads is tapped and gets a restrictor screwed into it.
