My block got shipped from California. Block number 426-555, same block number that Ken Black gave me and sent me pictures of 2 years ago. Block has been checked out, and the machine work that old Ken did is fantastic! I'm still very confused about what's going on at Keith Black. In my nonprofessional white trash opinion, I don't think the powers at Keith Black know who's in charge. I truly do believe that the goat roper who works in the Taco Bell drive-thru could do a better good at figuring out what's going than the owners at KB. Anyway, if I can get pics to load, I'll share some eye candy!

Actually Darren was here at the shop yesterday. LOTS of good news to report but I will let him be the one to do that in the next couple days here. If you are waiting to see what has happened I believe most if not all of you will be pretty satisfied with the results.

Ken put more blocks out than I thought after I finally got mine, Almost a 2 year ordeal, block# 426-495, The machining was poor, the bores were to be finished @ 4.500 ready to assemble. I had to have the bores fixed to square them up.(They never used deck plates)The water passages were filled with aluminum chips. Any one ordering a block in the future get the bores undersized and let a reputable machine shop do the finish work. IMO
