Lesson learned here go to KC or FES for plants.

The rest of your build is looking great. Can't wait to see the car, maybe Limerock this year?
I suspect that Keith gets much more responsive treatment than I am getting. He buys more blocks in a day than I will in my lifetime. The frustration that I have is the lack of response and the lack of urgency. He 9 the manufacturer) just isn't very motivated to get this resolved. For example, when I spoke to the guy last, I said lets issue the pickup tag NOW - at least you'll have the block. I know you will want to see the block before you send out another, lets get it to you NOW so that when you get the new blocks in, you can send me one out immediately. His response? "I don't want to take the block from you now and leave you with nothing." Leave me with nothing? It's a useless pile of iron, it's garbage, what the hell am I supposed to do with it? There are between 3 and 9 black porous spots in each and every cylinder, some the size of a dime. Leave me with nothing? I was stunned. There's just no sense of urgency at all. I'm trying very, very hard to stay calm, to be cooperative and to give this guy every opportunity to resolve this problem. I am trying to take the high road on this, and I will until such time that this is no longer possible. Then I will do whatever needs to be done to rectify the situation. I hope it doesn't come to that. I am running out of patience.....rapidly.
