No longer compromise with a small base circle cam and the problems associated with large strokes into short blocks!

Will support OVER 2000 hp!

DART offers two series of SBC Race Blocks; the DART Little M and the DART Iron Eagle. This Iron Eagle Block is the strongest SBC block made! Features include billet steel main caps on all 5 mains, .400" spread oil pan rails for increased clearance, raised camshaft location for increased clearance (no more small base circle cams), and an overbore capacity of 4.185". This is the block of choice for big stroke, large displacement small blocks looking for the strongest, easiest to use block. All DART blocks require the same preparation - Final sizing to your components. The bores are .010" under advertised size (3.990" on 4.0" blocks for example), the main line is occasionally tight, the lifter bores and deck need to be checked.

The Dart Iron Eagle eliminates the compromises found in production blocks. Iron Eagle small-blocks are available in standard (9.025") and tall-deck (9.325") versions so you can select the crankshaft stroke and connecting rod length that’s right for your combination. We also offer a choice of 350 or 400 main bearings to fit factory and aftermarket cranks. We raised the camshaft and spread the oil pan rails to provide extra clearance for stroker cranks.The versatile Iron Eagle block is the perfect starting point for a big-inch small-block project - you can build a 455ci small-block with Dart! We machine the Iron Eagle block to precise tolerances, eliminating the cost of expensive “blueprinting” a production block.
