Anybody have any experience with a Ritter small block?
How big can they be built and what do they cost and are they available?

There was this thread in the racing section last week.

To summarize: So far there have been AFAIK three attempted builds using a Ritter block. One block was so bad machining-wise that the purchaser returned it for a refund. Another block was built and had a problem possibly unrelated to the block, but the owner is too busy to pursue it. The third block is the one in the link posted above.

Here is my opinion: Anyone who contemplates building a Ritter block better have a really good machine shop handy and expect to pay nearly as much in remachining as the block cost. This may be a little harsh, but it's in the ballpark.

FOR SURE you cannot buy a Ritter block, clean it off and put your parts into it expecting it to work.

The big bore block should go 467 cubic inches without breaking a sweat. Tantalizing, right?
