Hi Dale,
I would be interested in an oil distribution block that would fit my 20B
that was put together by Bruce Turrentine. He used two 13B's to make my
20B. The engine has 13B embosed on the sections but nothing is on the rear
iron so I don't know what would fit there. I must assume it is the FC/FD
pattern. How can I be sure what block I need?
Robert
