RE: 426 Industrial Block

[Stan Kafouse <skafouse@xxxxxxxxx>]

Steve,
 
  413 Industial blocks were used in early 70's motorhomes and mid 60's to early mid 70's heavy trucks and irrigation pumps and other types of equipment.  The cylinder walls are typically around 275-300 thousands thick. The stock guys take them to 060 over 426 4.310. Still have lots of wall left. Nice strong block.  However there are plentiful 440's available with these same thick walls with a 4.32 bore, I also have a 400 block that has these thick walls. If you come across any of these blocks, snap them up. The 413's we use in stock eliminator.
