Default Re: New block, a further discussion

Business is business. Everyone wants a profit. I wouldn't do it for break even price either. They had to transport the stuff. All heavy stuff too. Not cheap. Some of it was likely a bit crusty with par-al-keytone. Removing that is time consuming and messy. They milled the back of the blocks where the governor lump was. They matched the intakes and I've seen some of those core shifted pretty well on the French blocks. They glyptal painted them and then? Warranty?
