How many guys on here would pay 5k for a good iron block, even if it could be in their driveway next week? Real question, not being a wiseguy.
Probably not many. 5G's is still a lot of money for anyone. But once you get to that power level that a $5000 block is required those kind of guys can afford one anyway. I have pieced my Mega block 528" Hemi together with the best parts I can afford over the last several years. From carbs to pan & dyno'd I have less than 17G's into my whole engine. Would I pay 5G's for another block to build another one. Not any time soon. LOL.
