Stock blocks are cheap easy to come by
If a motor blows it doesnt matter if it is a 200$ block or a
5000$ block
If your paying attention to your motors pulling maintains and certain refresh methods
you can get alot of years of trouble free use out of stock block
As i stated before the 540 we have in our stable none have blown up
And been together for number of years now
You have to know the number of how long do you dare run any rod combo under
any race prepped motor
Engine builder and balancer is key as well as tune and damage done by inenvertant
Operator errors
Stock blocks do work will work is there a cap as to how much how far
Sure but that goes for any block any combo out there
I have seen so many high end blocks hurt beyond repair i just stay with
my stock blocks thank you
