Part Nos.
TA V3800 OFF Off center configuration ............................ $3900.00
TA V3800 ON On center configuration ............................ $3900.00
OFF Center was the production version and is
recommended for street/strip/race applications
where original accessory brackets will be used
and/or when reusing certain parts from stock
block combinations, such as the connecting rods.
ON Center was the race block produced by
Buick. This block has the pistons located directly
on center with the crank pin, this results in less
piston drag. ON center blocks will shift the
cylinder heads, so accessory brackets and
certain other parts, like the connecting rods, can
not be reused from production blocks.
Please ask a TA Tech for details.
