  • How many block you guy machine in let's say in one year? Or was this one on off? Just read the article in hot rod magazine about you guys cool stuff!

  • @522design We can do a block every couple of days if we wanted to. However, we just got the first block back from the dyno and we are now about to test it in a car. We'll keep you updated.

  • WE COULD NOT FIND THE END MILLS WE NEEDED.... SO WE MADE THEM

    that's the real way to fix a problem!

  • @chaz706 Thanks :)

  • David Kirkham

    Are the 427 FE side oiler billet blocks ready for sale and does the bottom end have a girdle or just four bolt caps??? Sir David

  • @sixtiesforever1966 We are just not finishing up the dyno on the block. I will post information as soon as we get it. The bottom end is a girdle on this block.

  • Very impressive, but its such a shame you cant pronounce aluminium correctly

  • @eth7889, We send it all back to be recycled. It takes far less energy to melt chips into aluminum than to make aluminum from ore.

see all
