GM is claiming it has just built it’s 100,000,000th small block!
After reading the GM media release it is obvious that this number isn’t
just the small block us old guys think of. It includes all the V8s (think
LT and LS) considered “small” (versus those we know as ‘big blocks’)
and even some V6s. The V6s are the 4.3 engines that are virtually the
familiar “small block” V8, just missing two cylinders.
Anyway, the trivia is fascinating for, again, us old guys who grew up
adoring the ‘GM small block’!
For those of you who want a few hours of diversion to cope with this
winter’s lull in cruising, head to http://media.gm.com/100Msmallblock
for all the details right from GM.
