Re: [FWDLK] Ply engines



Relax, Gary.
 
We are all friends here. Step away from the rifle...
 
The early engines are "A" and the later are "LA" engines.
You might have to call one a "wide block" in order to discuss them
with "outsiders" who learned to talk about them that way.
Everyone else is doing their best to learn the right nomenclature.
 
Heck, the 392 Hemi blocks are not wide blocks.  They are wide engines
when the heads are on!

Greetings to all.  OK, here is one of my pet peeves...why do 'we' continue to call the early A engines 'wide block' ????  The block is NOT any larger than an LA block. The heads are only marginally larger (due only to valve angle) and weight difference is negligible.  Please please please stop using this erroneous description.  Remember, 'we' are suppose to know what 'we' are talking about...
