I'm not trying to rain on this parade but I have heard directly from Ken Black and Dave Koffel that casting blocks is a black art, lots of problems in getting good useable blocks I am hoping to all get out that someone will come out with a good quality Mopar Wedge cast ironor cast grey iron block for racing and street use

Well. The Chevy guys seem to have it figured out. So surely someone else can get it figured out. Me thinks the after market block industry is serving the bigger market first, not the Ford and Chevy guys making quality parts I would really like to know how many new block castings get thrown away do to lack of quality casting issues

Latest word is that kb has partnered with a hemi engine shop who will be marketing them and they will be in full swing shortly producing and selling blocks again. The shop is for hemis only. Hopefully this is true as it was posted today on a few mopar sites

I'm interested to see if anyone has received one yet.
