Default Genesis ALUM. Block Owners. Please Check In.

{Update- I don't think I'll be 100% happy with a iron block. This magazine side oiler build from the start, is about the 60's version compared to the new aluminum 2010 side oiler. I've done so much work to this point, so I don't think I can "settle",.... for the iron.)

I guess Tim of Genesis, may not be making aluminum blocks at this time ?

What do you owners think of your Genesis iron blocks.
Any bad issues ?
What year is it ?
What CI ?
What bore & stroke ?
Type of cam ? (I'm thinking a mechanical roller)
Brand of lifters ? (If a roller)
ect.....

1st- I was set with a 482 CI. but, I can go up to a 527 CI.

What's your thoughts with the following ?

This will be a radical driver, not a dedicated track car.
Not abused but, smash the pedal and have fun.
Pump gas. (8 + mpg)
Don't mind lashing the valves, need being.
Performance, is of course the meaning of a Cobra, but sound is equally of importance.

2nd- Tell me about your Genesis. Don't be shy with the good & the ugly.
