Ok thanks, I guess it must be "The Block" , just judging from the appearance of the lifter valley.
Was told they make them in RB, then they're not making any of them at all, and that was the end of it...so it was a surprise to come across this beast.

Dont look like any of the pictures of The Block. It has ribbing on the side as well as a CC on the front and neither of those show up on pics of The Block.

It's a Bulldog block. They are available in 9.980 deck, 10.200 deck, and 10.725 deck. Looking at the casting, my guess is it was cast and machined this past summer or fall. Aha! Cool beans. Thanks Mike, nice to know they're really out there.

The guy who bought my Belvedere has a low deck "The Block" that is a Hemi.
