To the point made by Brent Lykins - how many aluminum FE blocks has BBM shipped? How many consumers and/or engine builders have actually built engines with these blocks?

As Brent is in the business and is on record as saying BBM has not yet released these blocks, I'd be inclined to believe him.
None, they have not released them yet, they have the iron blocks now, in October the aluminum will be released, as per Doug, the iron block and unported bbm heads made 666hp from Blair, which is more than any builder I have seen so they must be good, and Blair is an FE god does not hurt, he could prob make that power with junkyard stuff...anyway it looks good for the fe market...they said that power was a hydro roller also at 6500 rpm which is impressive, those numbers are solid roller stuff...
