Speedmaster®
Chevy SBC 350 B-4.125 DH-9.025 4-Bolt Billet Main Bare Aluminum Engine Block
Overview
If your standard Bowtie block could handle 1000+ HP it would be Speedmaster's AH1 engine block. Design from the ground up based upon your favourite bowtie block with the ability to handle naturally aspirated, supercharged, turbocharged and nitrous applications.
The Speedmaster AH1 is the perfect starting point for a powerful and reliable engine build suited for the street or race track. Precision pre-machining is the perfect starting point for a powerful and reliable engine eliminating time and expense of blueprinting a stock block or ''semi-finished'' factory casting. Best of all can be used with standard off the shelf small block components.
