Quick question!
How do I know the difference between the BP block and the GTX block.
Would it say something on the block, because their selling me a motor and I want to know if its the BP [ US version ] or the its really a GTX block.

Pics would really help!!

BP26 on GTX block IIRC. That being said the block itself is identical.

the block and all the goodies inside it (beyond the pistons).

So The GTX Block Is BP26?

BP blocks are identical- my BPD block is simply marked "BP", just like my BP05 and ZE blocks.

Externally i think you're going to struggle to identify it. Only thing you can do is look at stuff bolted to it. If it has a head it'll have BP26 on it and sump will have a return line for the turbo. If you don't have either of those, the pistons in the BPT are dished (low compresssion) where as the BP ones are flat.
