    This may seem like a weird question KB block number 3306 is stamped near oil pump, other number is 8/N2373. Anyone know which block this may be? Thanks for any info.

    Call KB Racing Engines. They will look it up and be able to tell you who originally ordered the block new and the original specs, the "Stage #", deck height, lifter size, bearing size, bore size, etc. Of course, the specs may have changed since then but the info would be the blocks starting point.

    They will not answer the phone or e-mails. I need some parts and can never get them ordered. Even tried to order a block and cannot get in touch again-TRUE, but SAD!

    In the past, I have called them almost every day for 3 weeks straight with no answer. This is why I get everything from BAE now. Good luck!

    I left a message a couple of days ago and left my call back number and a short message about needing info for the block and the block number. No call from KB yet. I would highly sugggest going somewhere else. I know some racers try to support the underdog but after the dog breathed his last breath months and months ago, I would just go to BAE and whoever CAN and WILL sell you parts and support their product. Sad but true.

    I can understand being in ill health but it seems to me that posting a note on FaceBook or on the company recording or letting his customers know why there are communication problems would be a good idea.
