I remember a thread about the eddy victor SB head and they said "june" then someone else said they would be revealing another new head all together by the end of that week, still have not heard from either again I say, give us an aluminum W2, Indy is too much money with too low quality, heck pro-comp has less complaints maybe they should do the aluminum W2. A w2 makes plenty of power for the average guy, a little home porting and you can do 600 HP with out fragile max ported stock junk.

I have been keeping mumm about this for a while because every one says all 360 blocks are basically the same but the 5.9 magnum block can handle significantly more power than a 340 block or 92 back 360. A couple things to think about and look at, the pan rail around 2 and 4 mains has a lot more meat, kind of like a TA, and I don't see way better sonic numbers but I bet you would have a lot harder time busting a cylinder wall, try grinding some notches to clearance one for a stroker crank, then try it in the old LA block and see which one is tougher to grind on Not to mention the outer wall is thicker with the extra mount bosses, expecially the 2002-2003 blocks got to help with flexing. Oh and you get a roller cam included with every core, this is the one we need an aluminum W2 for. Go take a look with the two blocks sitting next to each other
