I see that there is a real problem (again) with Hemi block availability. The World blocks seemed to be doing the job, at least for a while. Are they no longer available? Anything from Mopar on a supplier or availability? Just curious as to what's happening. Master, again and still

From what I was told, the tooling was removed from the previous company machining the blocks and has not been set up yet. I had tried to order one back in January and was told March delivery. Then in February, it was a May delivery. So I bought one of the for sale section here. There was a huge jump in prices after I purchased my block. 68 Road Runner (383/4speed, post car w/decor pkg) - Major Project 69 Road Runner w/472 Hemi & 4 speed. 70 Challenger R/T SE EF8 w/ V9J, U - A32 - Major Project 2023 Ford Mach 1

Is in the discussion about the new Eddy Hemi heads. I had cash in hand and no one could find one. Maybe he has his own stock, which would be great. I heard the same comments about "so and so has one" and "summit has them on their site". I had cash burning a hole in my pocket and I couldn't get one to materialize. you truley won't find out about availability until you try to buy one. 68 Road Runner (383/4speed, post car w/decor pkg) - Major Project 69 Road Runner w/472 Hemi & 4 speed. 70 Challenger R/T SE EF8 w/ V9J, U - A32 - Major Project 2023 Ford Mach 1
