I don't have his books anymore, but Harry Pellow wrote quite a bit about the industrial engines. Off the top of my head they had low compression pistons and a milder cam. The good news was that the batch that was floating around 15 years ago were all basically C's so there was a long list of good things about them too.

As I recall Harry was using them as the base to build some killer engines while they were available.

I could use the industrial 356 longblock if it is not what you are after. Drop me a note at: browns@bendbroadband.com. And I'll do what I can to help you find a T IV longblock.
Thanks, Owen
