FOR SALE Extraordinary Rare 426 NASCAR type Block (4 Bolt Main provision) $1,250.00

[GTX JOHN]

This is from my late friend Gregg Luneauks race shop who
was one of the top Max Wedge racers and engine builder
in the World!

I understand this from my friends on the forum to be a Rare
426 Wedge engine with provisions for 4 bolt mains and a very
thick casting for performances. I understand only a small of
them were ever produced for Nascar and some Stationary engines. I
have never seen another one in my 60+ years of racing.

It has no numbers anywhere on it except for a "R8 on front of the block.

It is extremely low use with nearly no observable ridge or taper.

$1,250.00

Hi John was wondering if you had the block sonic checked to see how thick the cylinder walls are? I assume they are thicker because of the intended application?

No, it is only mine to sell and not to use.

However, it looks thicker than I have seen looking through the
freeze plug holes at the cylinders. The support ribs on the side are
huge as well. I can sell why Gregg used them for his superstock cars.
There are also a bunch of standard industrial 426 blocks also that look
much more HD than the 426 Max Wedge blocks for sure! Also a bunch of
413 Industrial blocks of his as well, plus several 426 fully machine race
engines with bushed corrected lifter bore I do not know if I will ever be able to
sell all of his stuff = but I am trying (Health Permitting).

You are welcome to come over and inspect it. My Sonic tester seems to have grown
legs and gone home with someone.
