Still looking i want to go off center though to make life a bit easier any 017 blocks around?
 
There are no 017 blocks. The casting # for a 4.1 liter Off center block is 25500016 and the GM part # used to order one was 25500017.

I thought stage 1's were 016 and 2's were 017 i thought i seen someone posted a 017 block a while back! Are 016's stage 2 or 1?
Weber's has a casting # chart and its shows 016 as a stg1 and 017 as a stg2.
 
All Off center 4.1 blocks are machined from the same 25500016 casting whether Stage I or Stage II. Here's a link to an original GM brochure which lists the P/N's for Stage I and Stage II blocks. This is where I think the confusion originally came from.

If you come across a block and are uncertain of what it is shoot me a PM and I'll see if I can help you out.

I have no doubt he is i just seen two things stating there was 017 castings so much for assuming!:confused:

There are actually some pictures in the archives on GNTType.org. that show an engine Billy Anderson built stating it's on 017 Off center block. I've owned quite a few 4.1 Stage I and II blocks over the years and I've never seen one. I'll stop short of saying they don't exist but if someone has a block with an 017 casting # I'd like to see it.

I chatted with Don a month back and he was supposed to dig the block out and give me all the details because he could not recall exactly what it was but I never heard back from him.
 
$4000 for brand new 153 block and crank is to much ? I wonder how much you looking to spend for a stage II block
 
I have a complete standard bore 016 block stage ll motor from throttle body to oil pan if you are interested.It is the motor in my signature.
