Hmmm,,,,,,,,,, I have had two street wedge's and neither of them had the reliefs cut in the block, as well as the 383's (both engines have the same bore) that I have had,,,,,,,, there was no reason for it, as the street wedge never had the heads that needed the extra notch for the valves In a message dated 12/30/2010 11:17:46 P.M.
