Virgin Off Center Stage block

[dank GN]

I just acquired a 016 stage block . The bore is a virgin 3.790 . It has been upgraded to 4 bolt mains on the center 2 caps . Price is $3800 plus the ride

So what you are saying is it started life a Stage 1?

Not really sure what you mean by that? This block is a stage 2 off center block it has never been bored out so it has the very small bore size of 3.790 .

I didn’t think 016 blocks came 2 bolt main.
What’s your location?

Your statement "it has been upgraded to 4 bolt mains" is what made me ask. Are all the head bolt holes tapped all the way through? Very nice find btw.

According to this block guide they came with 2 bolt mains . That is the reason I said it has been upgraded to 4 bolt http://www.gnttype.org/techarea/pictureguides/blocks/stage141.html

Do you have all the main studs and nuts??
Are all the extra head bolt holes tapped all the way through on the cylinders for the 14 bolt heads?
can you take picture of the back of the block-showing cam port and beter pic of the rear main cap?
