Will a 25534363 $1765.00. GM Bowtie block inerchange with my gen 6 502 block that came in my 500efi?

The 25534363 says its a one pc seal and the timing cover fits 5 and 6 covers.Says its machined for hyd roller and flat tappets.I really dont want to use the stock 10237292 when there's only 136.00 diff. I am planing on new short block assembly's for next winter,maybe more cubes too Most of the engine guys use the gen 4 and change everything over to gen 4 stuff .I didnt really want to replace all the gen 6 stuff I already have.


or does Dart or World make one that will work w/ the gen 6 stuff.


Will this block work in place of my stock GM block?

Thanks
Rob

IRONMAN

My understanding is that the major differences are wall thickness (Bowtie can go to 4.625 bore) , Blind head bolt holes and all of the previous MK4 and MK5 bowtie upgrades. However I have not used one yet so hopefully someone who has can chime in. I remember reading about someone using that block at 4.625 bore to make a 537" motor with the stock 4" stroke crank mark6 stuff to make a "reasonable cost" 540 ish engine. Not much room for rebuilds though.

Hey Rob keep me in mind if you sell your gen6 blocks. I,m not to far away in Beaumont.

The main thing I am asking if all the gen 6 stuff will bolt up to this Bowtie block?The gen 5-6 and bowtie's have Blind head bolt holes .

The blocks I have now are holding up fine, one is a little loose and figured I step up ci at the same time .


Will do H2Xmark

the duke

The Gen5-6 454's don't have blind holes.

I know where there are a couple that are bored .030, honed except for piston fit, aligned and decked. Freshwater only. I think he was looking for $1650 each.
