Not Ranked
Is the issue with Genesis (ie lack of availability) just with the alloy 427 block? I have read about folks with iron blocks. Not sure how long those folks with iron blocks had to wait.
I have posted on this subject before as I am considering a Genesis 427 block. Will probably go with the iron block.
Is it accurate that issues with Genesis were more from the past, say two years ago?
Is it accurate that now that company has been acquired and hear things that Ford Motor sports is supporting this project things are improving from an availability/quality standpoint?
Besides some need for add'l machining, has overall quality been that awful? Would think price may also improve with additional availability/competition.
I am still in search for a block for my ERA. In the original market, all I am finding is 427s's requiring either sleeves, with thin cylinder walls or bored .030 over. Not doing much better on 428's. Not finding any real bargains either!
Once and for all, why aren't the Genesis offerings a much needed boost for the Cobra hobby?What other alternative would you consider if you are in need of an FE block for your Cobra?
Sorry if anybody feels I am beating a dead horse.
