Closed deck blocks
All lined up ready to be refurbished for 2.1 strokers.
I'd like some more as they are selling like hot cakes.
Only, don't bother if your name's John Robinson from Yardley, Birmingham as you've already had a stack of my money and no blocks from you, ya waste of air. Court action to follow.

Prettier when finished! This uses an open deck block, but you get the picture.

We fully strip your block and chemically clean. We bore and hone to fit using a stress plate. We use Wiseco pistons and K1 H beam rods with a new 2.5 crank and ACL Race bearings. We balance the assembly. The heads are fully overhauled including the guides. We use Cosworth head gaskets and sump baffle plate, along with an RCM uprated oil pump and ARP head stud kit.
New cam belt. We paint the engine.
All work is carried out in our own machine shop.
We can fit the engine as a full drive in drive out for £4250 inc vat. This also includes the first 50 miles of running in, oil and filter change, washed engine bay etc.
These engines have run well over 500 bhp, even on open deck blocks!

I know that the 257 is recommended not be run over 480hp due to risk of breaking cylinder walls/liners. I just know a couple that are running over 500 with no problems at all.

It would never be the power output itself that caused the problem, so much as the cylinder fill required to produce it. If you accepted that's what the problem was. I think it's more likely to be a gasket compromise, followed by water ingress into the cylinder. Hydraulics are not to be messed with.
