I think Al has had 2 on order for close to 2 years??

The problem didn’t seem to be so much in taking orders........as there was in “filling” orders.

Hopefully they get it sorted out.

I was told by Tim mine was on its way to him now(last week(, he offered to have it drop ship directly to me but I would much rather have him inspect it and finish the needed machine work to make it useable due to me not having the machines needed to do block work like line honing, decking and so on shruggy

Last I looked, it was about $7500 for the block, $1000+ for the head studs, shipping......then, whatever finish machine work is required.

Figure between 9- $9500 and closer to 10 if you want bushed lifter bores.

The first company to get a billet, water in the deck only block for 10 complete will take over as" the" block manufacturer IMO. Having just and inch of water in the deck would suit every wet block need there is. With a real oil cooler you could drive it coast to coast. I don't know about what a wet predator head, or any of indys, or brodix can take forced. What I can say is almost every stage V cast hemi head can take darn near anything. That half water head they make could probably survive nitro. Whatever material they use is double tough.

Was this question directed to the KB or the Bill Mitchell blocks?

Have not looked into this for a long time but KB Inc were going to do a GM block also. Hemi Blocks are here not sure of all the variables being cast. Once things settle down on the Hemi Blocks other blocks were going to be looked at and Produced. I will talk to Tim when we are in Bewdley Ontario at his shop. He has to do the lifter bores on two of the blocks and after that we will drive the 30 minutes to pick them up. It has been a long wait for Raise Cam Hemi Blocks, just over 18 months but others might have waited longer for theirs to be cast.
