Everyone's favorite moving target (?)

https://www.enginebuildermag.com/20...n-ii-hemi-wedge-cast-iron-engine-blocks/

I won't profess to know their business but on the surface they appear to have permission to use the Mopar/World Products tooling
and the idea is the raw castings will come out the same place as before (Dalton) .

3rd quarter of '20 seems ambitious and their machining supplier seems to only have experience with billet aluminum, but maybe that's
just their marketing. They might have more capability than they are letting on.

Odd when someone who already does cast iron to death (Dart) could probably do it far easier and faster, but maybe that's not a venture
they are interested in....since the old school Mopar Performance product line appears to be permanently gone now, IIWII.

It's either that or the Bradshaw/Bulldog thing.
