So many buttheads on this site give him crap about his heads I doubt he will ever make the block. It's really sad that he gets so much crap from the stupid flagwaivers on this board  Gus

If I was ready to buy a block... or anything else from them, I would ask them. Since I'm not I thought I'd see if anyone else knew.

Im a flag waver. yes, that says FLAG.
I never bash on 440source because they are offering something for a price nobody else does. I have a problem when 2 items are equally priced, and of similar quality, someone choses to buy the foreign product.
Im a repeating satisfied 440source customer and proud of it. I certainly hope the blocks come out soon. 
by the way Gus, my Dell was made in the USA.

the "you are ignoring this user" message was starting to get burned into my old school monitor every time a thread about 440 source came up. At least we get a break from him for a while.

If any bashers are running Hooker Headers shame on you. Been made in mexico for a decade and a half.  Sell your Hookers and shell out $1200 for some Stahls or equvalent for some TTIs.
Keep old mopars alive.

Wheels, they are made in the USA, but on the back
side it says MADE IN CHINA

At least 440 source tells you where there made,
in china or where ever. Use them or not is your
American choice.

The final product quite likely was CNC'd in USA but the casting or forging was probably done in China. Also, many wheels are produced in two pieces to yeild the desired offset so its possible the rim was done in China but the insert done in the USA.
Have you noticed all the "plain brown boxes" that new wheels are in at swapmeets, shows, etc.. All Chinese product. When they're repackaged into the Cragar box the price doubles !!

No need to bash on 440 source now. Brandon seems like a stand up guy, if everyone has a problem with a part they bought and it failed and he gave refunds on the products sold plus any additional damage to the engine, he wouldn't have his doors open anymore. Many on here have met him and spoken with him and he goes into detail about his parts. I can honestly say this because I have met him three times in the last 4 years and purchased over 1500 bucks worth of parts, some I haven't even installed yet like H beam rods, his pistons, a stroker crank....little things like mini starters...Just keep in mind that the same block you buy from other retailers comes from China as well, when it arrives at the distribution centers here they get checked, maybe sonic....heck who know...maybe even an MRI hahaha...and they affix their metal plate to the block or engrave the block with a number. You get what you pay for, either way....a motor can grenade from 440S or from Ma Mopar.
