   We for see the current block will be fully machined in 2-3 weeks.

   At that point we will cut it up to confirm machining locations and
   casting.

   If all looks good, we will officially open it up to taking orders &
   deposits.


   "Technically" the foundry said they will produce our casting on the
   first order in 4 weeks.

   Once we get them, we will be able to start the machining process.

   We will be assembling the first 3-4 blocks to make sure everything fits
   correctly before we release bare blocks.

   Customers who want an assembled block of some level will get priority
   for the reason we shared above.


   Why do we think this will be the best bock ever. (We are also including
   brands like Dart & World Products)


   1)      The alloy we are using is stronger than any other cast aluminum
   block currently being manufactured. (see attachment for PRI show)

   2)      The 1/2" threads for the mains & head bolts locations are
   rolled formed, not a cut thread.

   3)      The lifter bores in our block are finished with a burnishing
   tool to help surface harden & precise sizing.

   We have more featured coming....so stay tuned.

   The iron bock will impress the day lights out of ya, there is no other
   block for the money that is even close to be as strong...Period!


   Please view our YouTube page and you can see all of these process in
   action.
