It didn't come across that way to me. I recall a picture of Mike pointing to "MM" even being cast into the block. Better it can still be bought than going down with the Muscle Motors ship.

If I listened correctly, Mike told me that Chicago Connection is one of the dealers for the block.

29 years in this business, specializing in only one brand(and that brand not being Chevy), is a pretty good run.

I wish them luck in their future endeavors.

Yeah, selling parts to Mopar guys for 25 years would make anyone old.

Wish them the best! Bought a 451 kit and they did the machine work on the block. They always remembered my name and treated me like gold, great work and a really great street motor. A Class Act!
