Dart SHP Block

Post by perfconn »

Anyone know if there is enough material around the lifter bores in a sb chevy Dart SHP Pro block to allow boring them out to use the Jesel .937 keyway lifters?

That's a 1.062" OD bushing, there is plenty of material.

Just had an SHP block done by Clements and it worked fine.

About 5 years ago we had to fix a sbc iron eagle block that had excessive oil to top end on one bank only. When lifter bores were opened up for 1.062 od bushings they broke into main oil galley. We fixed issue with custom bushings that had only partial od oil band. It wasn't a SHP block, but look for issue anyways.
