Product Details

Dart 31283665 Short Blocks

Tall Deck Iron BBC Block

Standard 4.840 or 4.900 spread bore spacing provide large bore capacity. The camshaft is raised .400 above the stock location to increase clearance for the connecting rods and crankshaft counter weights, and the main oil gallery is located alongside the camshaft tunnel to eliminate interference with the crank assembly.

Advanced engineering makes Dart aluminum big blocks the choice for serious competition.

Features:

  • Premium alloy: Dart aluminum blocks are cast from virgin 355-T61 aerospace alloy for superior strength and integrity.
  • Ductile iron sleeves with extra thick cylinder walls promote excellent ring seal.
  • Reinforcing ribs strengthen the lifter valley bellhousing flange.
  • Inboard valley head stud bosses improve gasket sealing.
  • Priority main oiling system delivers oil directly to the crankshaft bearings to enhance reliability at high engine speeds.
  • Standard BBC cam journals, up to 60mm with raised cam options available.
  • Standard .842 BBC lifter bores, other options also available.
  • With or without distributor provision.
  • Steel 4 bolt main caps with splayed outer bolts for extra strength. Light-weight aluminum caps also available.
  • Mechanical fuel pump boss, clutch linkage mounts, and side and front motor mounts simplify installation in any chassis.
  • Dual oil pan bolt patterns fit standard and notched oil pans.
  • Average weight 140lbs.

I had a great experience shopping at autoplicity

Great price found for my product. excellent customer service and my item was in stock.

so far so good!

Ordering was very easy and product was delivered within a week. I ordered a battery and it was received in good condition and works. I would recommend autoplicity to others.

This is our second order from Autoplicity. The first one didn't go so well due to a mix up with the Sparco seat pricing. Though I was starting to question our decision to order from them after several emails and phone calls and online chats, they came through in the end. These guys earned our second order by honoring the price they had listed and then calling to follow up when our race seat was shipped. Since this group was able turn our bad experience into a positive one we made our second order and, so far, it looks like they are again getting us what we want at the best price we can find. We are happy to recommend Autoplicty and plan on using them for future orders. There is one specific thing we would recommend, change the quality and volume of the hold music on the 800 #. It sounded like we were calling a 1970's van with a blown Jensen stereo turned all the way up,...

Shipped very quickly and had the best price I could find!

Great prices on most things. Ordered on a sunday and they processed and shipped the order the next day.

first order fast shipping and great fit

The whole process was some and quick. They also had the lowest prices available. Will be using them more often for sure!!
