Getting a block from a solid peice of aluminum would be stronger than casting, there is a reason Prostock uses billet blocks, along with weight savings and so on, you could'nt be wrong on more levels, any time you can add strength and save weight it's a plus in my book. They have tested the block and so far so good, and if the Kirkhams are designing it, you know it has to be good. (Iv'e talked with Dart about making an FE block billet, they just need an FE block to digitize and duplicate, anyone have a Shelby or Pond laying around?)
