Think of other less expensive equivalents...........would you have your heads ported and run stock springs ? Adapter and dominator on an iron intake ? Cast pistons and Carillo rods ? The cool factor of an aluminum block is way up there. But if you are willing to open up the vault , keep it open. Hell , I don't even skimp on gaskets. There are better off shore options , as mentioned. But pairing the best with the marginal just baffles me.
