Casting the block upside down?
I also live in the Chevy world (63 Impala), and I read that GM poured their heads upside down at the foundry so that the heavier iron particles would migrate to the valve seat areas for greater strength and durability at the upper deck of the heads where all the reciprocating and valve seating took place over 200,000 miles.
Did Henry (or other manufacturers) utilize a similar method?
