All V4 crossflows from 1978 on will bolt up. Are you looking for a block only or a powerhead (less carbs and electronics) or a complete dressed powerhead?<br /><br />Good luck!

OK a block only. That kinda limits things. The 1978 has the late model bolt pattern for the adaptor housing but still uses the crank with the small center main bearing. <br /><br />The 1979's all use the large center main crank.<br /><br />The 1977 115 20" uses the early bolt pattern.<br /><br />The 1977 140 will work - late bolt pattern, small main crank.<br /><br />Any V4 block 1979 and up will work if you use a large center main crank. <br /><br />Tip - if the front half has the lower pan mounts that bolt on, its a block that uses the small center main crank. If the pan mounts are cast in, its a block for the large center main crank.<br /><br />Jack at Superior (800-338-9281) will have one. Give him a shout.<br /><br />Good luck!
