In the Shop with Jason Line (Expo 2024 - Episode 27)

For this episode, CWT Industries’ Randy Neal heads down to The Tar Heel State to see Pro Stock legend Jason Line and talk to the man about his new JLine engine blocks.
The pair discuss Line’s decision to go from racer to engine designer, and how his experience behind the wheel gave him the insight to build a block that’s a level up from other blocks on the market.
Line also talks about the influence Dan Jesel had on his block design and how his colleagues and customers are helping him push the JLine forward.
Summing up his philosophy, Line reveals he’s not interested in a volume business but one that’s focused on quality and constant improvement because, as he learned as a Pro Stock champ, “in racing, if you’re standing still, you’re going to get run over.”

Hey Jason!

Question- The subject is the 408 W build. When the solid roller was installed did you guys check the valve clearance? It had .669" lift with a 1.72 rocker. The pistons have a valve relief.

I miss Jason in pro stock.

What block is his first product ,,, ?

[@leonardfoster6252]

It takes money to do the backing, lots of money and time and parts to get the job done...

Pro stock blocks ?

This was not a good interview. 15 minutes of two industry professionals essentially talking about nothing. FYI - Jline are manufacturing what were the Bulldog Gen II Hemi blocks.

[@warfish3651]

He is not making Bulldog Hemi blocks. He gave up on that. I built engines out of 3 of the Jline hemi blocks. If they didnt leak, they were good. He is making a scratch built BBC block. From what I have heard, its a great platform.The bulldog blocks, or anything related to that guy are garbage. Buy a Callies if you want a Hemi block that works.

@@warfish3651 What about the "B" block? anything in the works? There's a missing link for Mopar builders

@@anthonymavrick7238 I have never built one of those. I dont know anything about it. I would just steer clear of the do it yourself casting guys.
