<div>Hi Joe. I have the block from my TR-2, which had no cam bearings. I am using a later block in the car because I wanted cam bearings. It is a late TR-2, block number is 7257. While it does not have cam bearings, or holes for the retaining bolts, I believe they anticipated adding cam bearings at some time, as the bosses for the holes for the retaining bolts are cast into the block. I don't know if this is true of all TR-2 blocks, but it certainly made it easier when they added cam bearings. No changes were required to the block casting, only the machining was different. Interesting history.</div><div><br></div><div>Jack<br></div><div><br></div>
