è
Edelbrock is pleased to announce the release of its engine blocks for
small- and big-block Chevrolet and Corvette applications. Edelbrock
blocks are a great starting point for any high-performance build. A true Amer-
ican V-8 engine deserves to be started with high-quality iron cast in Amer-
ica. Edelbrock is now offering this option with new engine blocks that are cast
and machined in the USA. These are the same engine blocks used on select
Edelbrock small-block Chevy crate engines as well as their RPM 540 big-block
Chevy crate engine.Edelbrock

Crank Trigger Dizzy
è
MSD announced it has expanded its already extensive line of crank-trigger distributors to
include new models for Chevy applications. Developed specifically for use with crank-
trigger ignitions and MSD ignition control systems. Two of MSD’s most popular Chevy dis-
tributors now are no longer offered only with the traditional red cap, which means there’s no
longer any need to throw away your perfectly good new red cap and unnecessarily buy a
replacement in black to get that stealth look.
