Repairs and new castings are a different beast for sure...No money is laid out in the repair of the old blocks other than internal labor.

Ya know you hear lots of rumors in this sport/hobby/business and I have found most end up being fairly factual in the end.

I hope everyone with one on order receives it. I know they will be happy with the quality once they do. As I said before just be honest and up front about any and all issues. Afterall there must be a reason you need to put down money up front....
