MERLIN Short Blocks

How big do you want to go? We’ve got short blocks ranging from 509 to 632 inches based on MERLIN III blocks and other top quality components. More importantly, compare and you’ll discover that you can buy a professionally-built short block assembly for a price that’s comparable to purchasing parts alone from other sources.

More of the do-it-yourself type? All of our short block assemblies are available as kits- The blocks are machined, the components are balanced and sent to you for assembly!
