If dizuster(Scott) or his dad could stop by the second floor office of the Nascar guys(if its still in the same place right off the main node)and ask... those guys were really up to date on most anything that was aftermarket or MP stuff.. if anybody knows they should... I dealt with those guys often and thats where I went to tell them of the incorrect part number issue on the W-9 gaskets..or Zippy.. but I havent seen him on here lately

They are still open online for parts sales. Can't remember what they go by, I'd have to look it up. I bought my 6.4 from them. Good guys to work with.

If you want something interesting, ask about the A4 block prices. A couple versions are on closeout and instead of $5k+, they are on blowout for about $850.
I grabbed one just to mess with. Might end up with a Turbo 4 in something after all.

Isnt that the alum 4 banger block that you can mount the
W-9 head on... I was thinking of doing one of them
with a W-9 head and a turbo... if they're that cheap
I might have to
Yup, but the W9 versions are not available from what I can tell. I got one for the P5/P5 Hemi and the P9 version is also on closeout. I'll hold out for a bit to see if I can find a head, or start messing with the block to get something else to fit. I went for the P5 block since it's 9 inch deck height and the others are only 8.4, or something like that.
At the price there's not much to loose trying something new. I'd love to mod it to fit a P7 head, not sure if that is possible. It just showed up a couple days ago.

They will not be cheap like they were as they can no longer pull a mass produced block off the line and sell it to you.
I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!

I just picked up a Jeep with a 6.1. Who has a cliff notes versions of what's different between the 5.7 and the 6.1? Where does the bigger 6.4 fit in?

his ON LINE business.... I will go over to the Old
