Talked with the old man Ray Barton the other day...We had a nice long discussion by phone. Blocks came up, and he really likes the new Callies iron blocks. No issues to date, and he has built 40 of them this year so far. I almost bought a Bulldog low deck last year or so....Glad I did not.
Callies might be okay once they figure out how to do all the machine work. Some pictures floating around of partially machined blocks.
No issues per Ray Barton, and as I said, he built 40 this year alone with those blocks. Its using the old Mopar tooling and castings...So as long as the corect controls are in place, life should be good.
