49" heads have two external arched braces on spark plug side.  The block has a differnt casting around the oil filter location. You would almost have both blocks side by side to tell the differnce. once you saw or see the differnce yuo could reconise the diff. at a quick glance.  Ron.

Jim, It's not cheating It's just joining the heard! Most of the rules just state you must begin with ?? HP. Block or eng. in the begaining  I,ve not yet seen any CI. checks at any races not even nats. or the great american ?  :bash:

I know what others are doing....some clubs/racers like to make the rules mean what they say. I dont condone the use of a bigger block than rules allow, just because the herd is doing it....

The rules say you must start with a certain HP engine block, the rest of the internal mods and ending CI are unlimited. Start with a legal block, bore it, stroke it, or do whatever you want inside, it's legal. There are Intek twins and Tecumseh twins well over 50ci as well as the Kohlers, and all are 100% legal. They all make big power. It comes down to who has spent the most time getting that power to hook up, and the chassis to handle it entering and exiting the corners.  Mike Collins does this very well, and he would be fast with whatever brand of engine he had.

thank you,we gonna nail a cheater next season,but waitn on him to spend big bucks on his motor before we tell him there is a difference in blocks,lol

Why do that? You could potentially lose a racer over a possible misunderstanding.  Just inform him you must start with a 44ci block (or whatever is legal in your club), and then bore/sleeve it to the 49ci or whatever bore, keeping him within the rules.

Tyler is on the nose....just make sure he knows he has to start with the legal block...then if he tries to slip it past, gig him.
