Re: New block, a further discussion
I keep bringing up the complexity of a flathead casting and it just doesn't seem to register. It is not just a SBC type block with a fee extras! This is just about as complicated as it gets as far as blocks go. Each one of the core components has to be almost perfect and has to be located perfectly in the mold and held in place during the casting process, this is NOT easy stuff. When you clean out a flathead block you will still find leftover wire and core pieces after all these years.
