Where are all the TA aluminum blocks at??

[gnon18s]

Seems like i dont see, or hear of, the aftermarket TA aluminum blocks very often. Where are they all at? Whos running them? ..any street cars?

Others may know better than me but id guess there are less than 100 of them out there. The TSO racers run them and they are more common with racers that are building 900hp or more.

Hmm, I haven't seen Kenny in a while. Might be a good time to go down

How much power will these blocks hold?

Awesome! Glad to here some people are running these on the street. ..expensive motor for a daily driver though.

How much are these blocks selling for? $4,000?

Just bought an 81 turbo trans am with a TA aluminum block v6. Haven't had much fun with it since its winter but it's dynoed at 809 hp and 804 trq with 27lbs boost. Should be a fun street car.
