In light of the somewhat successful first run of v-bloks and the help good friend I am able to make another run of these things. Things are going to be a little different this time though - I’ll get to that in a second. Not only did my friend find a CNC shop to make these things happen, he fronted me all of the money. This was really great of him because there would have been no way to make these again for at least 4 months. Thanks bro!

New and Improved


- 5 usable ports instead of 4 (2 on either end, 4 down the side – 6 ports total, 1 in, 5 out)

- 100% CNC Billet Aluminum (shop specializes in automotive performance parts)

- Bright Dip Anodized in Red, Blue and Black (This finish is much more lustrous then the previous run, plus now there is blue)

- Laser Etched logo vs rotary engraved (will look a lot nicer on your ride)

- Mounting holes with chrome flush mount Allen head screws (not that syty guys will need this, but it may come in handy)

- More fittings (You will see almost double the brass fittings in your kit in various sizes for no extra cost)


New Price – Limited Time


$30. Yeap that’s right. This low price is only possible because my friend fronted the money for 100 of these things (some serious money to offer up by my standards). The first buy in was 20 so my investment cost was less, but cost was more per unit. Right now shipping will stay at $10 for USPS 2-3 day, it may go up just as an incentive to get pictures back of these installed on peoples’ cars. Again, shipping is fully refundable if you email me some installed pics. This price of $30 a unit will only last for these first $100 (The part is well worth $45, compare with units on ebay and you will see why.) My friend would like to recoup his investment rather quickly so we agreed the set price of $30.00. The goal is to sell them all 100 in 4-6 weeks through various avenues, including ebay.


In Good Faith


To everyone that has purchased a first gen v-blok (and I know who you are ) do not be too pissed off. I will send you guys $15 if you bought one from the syty group buy and $20 if you paid full pop. This is per unit, so if you bought 2, get out the calculator

. All you have to do is send in pictures on your v-blok installed on your syty. This will effectively make your v-bloks 5 dollars cheaper then the new ones, and since almost all paid $6 for shipping instead of $10 it should even out somehow, I hope. I appreciate everyone’s support and hope everyone is happy with what they got. This is my best attempt to be fair here. Once again, the second run of these was an opportunity presented to me, not one that I went searching for. The $30 price will only last for the first 100 units.


Delivery Time


The shop says 2 weeks from yesterday, so we will say 3 just to be safe. Ill post pics as soon as I get some but the basic design is still very prominent (it has an extra hole) I will let you know when they are available to buy.

Update - Available Middle-End of April 07


Side Note


The billet syty adapters still wont be ready before September 07 due to none other than lack of money. I have about 5 brass ones left and more of those can be made if need be.

Re: New and Improved V-BLOKS for 2007

I bought one off of you just a few weeks back and installed it just last evening, great product and looks too. I would rather have one of the new blocks than any kind of refund on my last purchase. The refund amount plus the shiopping cost refund for pics i will send should just about cover the new block, let me know how much more i will owe you and i will paypal you, i want a polished one.

The chrome barbs are 3.99 from summit. I havent found them anywhere any cheaper. The option kit was sold at my cost for $15 with 3 chrome barbs, they only have 3/16" barb size and larger for those.

It basicly expands the capability of your engine to use a boost gauge, controller, blow off valve, pressure switch etc with out Teeing any vac lines. www.v-blok.com has all the info

Re: New and Improved V-BLOKS for 2007

I want a polished one. $40 shipped with the brass syty fitting right? Then $10 refund when we send you pics of it installed? I want to run a boost controller, and a BOV soon :) ---

Regarding the few remaining 4 port V-bloks I have left over, that price is valid.

If you are refering to the new 5 port v-bloks, the price would be $30 for the block, $10 for the brass adapter and another $10 for shipping. The shipping is fully refundable upon reciept of pictures of the installed v-blok on your truck.

I will update the original post with the pricing.

I am sold out of the 4 port black v-bloks. You can wait for the new 5 ports if you like or I can pull the black one off my truck

Re: New and Improved V-BLOKS for 2007

for the guys that wanted polished, thats not going to happen. what started as a 3 week venture turned into a 3 month ordeal were I had very little control of the what the guy making these things was doing. long story short none were left out from anodizing. :tdown:

we are awaiting the brass fittings and chrome mounting hardware to complete the kits, but they should be ready to go in about a week from today.
