I am smarter than that. Starting from scratch tooling and core boxes, plus getting the casting process right takes TIME. Just because the first castings were cast 18 months ago, does NOT mean a single one of them was usable. After that run, any number of things may have needed to be changed. If that was tooling or core boxes, that is not a "shelf stock" item, nor are they cheap.

Make it like before...........so you mean with weak main webs, core shift and questionable oiling? Or do you mean with a max 4.380 bore, no provision for bigger cam, higher location, or bigger lifters. And two bolt main?.........gotcha. How many are YOU in for like that at $3500 a pop
