Get Pro Stock performance from spread-port headed engines.  With the SLB Option the lifters are moved the maximum amount possible in the 4.84” bore-space platform.  The 1.058” id lifter bores are ready for 1.062” od bushings.  These bushings are available for .937” diameter lifters.   

New Century SLB blocks provide:
• Improved Valve Train Geometry
• Reduced Valve Train Flex
• Reduced Lifter Bore Friction
• Improved Durability
• Increased Power







In addition to the valve train benefits, offsetting the lifters moves the pushrods away from the intake ports. This provides more room for straightening the intake ports when porting the cylinder heads.
