THE TITUS BLOCK
Available in: Aluminum or Iron
Engine Block, Redesigned based on the 351 Cleveland, Aluminum or Cast Iron, 9.2-9.7 Deck Height, 2-piece Rear Main, 1-piece Rear Seal
OEM Clevelands and Windsor-based blocks don't have the strength to accommodate the amount of power we can make with today's power adders. The Titus Block – designed to withstand as much power as you can make – keeps the best parts about the 351 Cleveland's architecture and improves the design, making it even better than the original.
This means more power, more cubic inch capacity and MORE FUN.
