Well, there is such a thing as a "motorhome" block. It means it came in a motorhome. But I don't guess it's any better than a regular block. It is made from the same casting. It is described in the Mopar B/RB handbook. It has 2 "steam holes" in the deck under each exhaust port similar to a 426 Hemi. This is why those 2 holes are there when you buy a head gasket for a wedge. (Look at your wedge head gasket.) But that doesn't mean that all motorhomes had a "motorhome block". Don't confuse this with the Very Heavy Main Web 230 block that was made up until approximately 10-10-71. Which is what you should use to build a 1000 horsepower wedge if you are not using an aftermarket block.
