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.
Evidently the Olds guys will pay it. Unless the people making them are fixing to lose their ass and didn't research the market.
I'm also under no delusion that Chrysler guys are the cheapest screws out there (for the most part as I well aware of what I spent, and I know personally others who have went beyond the call of duty to R&D some of this stuff out of their own pocket) as is evidenced by the fact guys still build 400 plus CID small blocks and put heads on them that have the base architecture for an engine developed over 50 years ago.
God forbid you have to run a an offset rocker and lifter, even though the Chevy guys have been doing it since the early 1980's that I know of.
