What Gen block Phragle, and if a 6 like the cam, do you have the retainer/dogbones/ and spider ?

Its a gen 6. I dont have the dogbones/spiders but I can get them ...

I went with the johnsons. Some still use the morels. The cranes were also recommended by a very good builder. I'd say pick one of those 3. The morels used to be the best but there has been a lot of complaints about them lately. This ruined my brain trying to pick a set. The johnsons have a .700 wheel as do the cranes. Which will cost you roughly 1.5-2 on duration. The morels are a .750 wheel which is the wheel most cams are specd with.
I bought mine from eddie young. He did very well on the price. Good luck in your search. |
working on the same issue now as my sons boat has a failed what is supposed to be morels, johnsons are what I have heard the best thing about, they have a lube hole that oils the roller that most others don't but following this as well. I did run std GM setup with HP500 carb cam for years with no issues for what thats worth

There are 2 models of the johnsons one has the axle oiling one doesn't. 2116bbr is the model that I went with and was recommended by Eddie. It doesn't have it to my knowledge. Ron sporl also recommended the same part number.
Edit: I just looked it up......+.300 |
Yes +.300

I have been running the stock gen 6 lifters on .625 lift for 4 years with no issues. 150# on the seat, a little over 400# open
