Have you thought about Bill Mitchell Products aluminum blocks? Anyone here having experience with that block??


I am building a new engine with the BMP aluminum block right now.

The machine shop I used bored it from 4.490 to close to final size before honing it the final amount.
I am very happy with it so far. Trying to find time to do assembly now.
