Robert has made very few iron blocks and I had a few but sold them already. I have new Pond aluminum, new Shelby aluminum, new Genesis aluminum and a NOS Ford original side oiler block as well. I have them completely machined and how they come from the manufacturer. I like to machine them before we sell them so we can catch and problems they might have had at the factory that they did not catch. We pressure test all of pour blocks even though they say they do but we trust no one when we start on a block. We fully machine them in our RMC CNC block machining center. They all neeed certain things done to them to bring them up to a ready to go block. We can ship tomorrow if needed. Thanks, Keith Craft

Thanks Keith,
we hopefully have a genesis block on the way, but we shall see.

After losing a lot of sleep and pulling in a lot of favors, my engine builder and I are giving up on trying to get a new motor built and in my cobra in time to make it to the bash. It is just too expensive and complicated a project to accomplish in the time set forth. Yes, I could have put something in my car and made it, but it involved compromises (one of which was peace of mind) that I ultimately was not prepared to make. I honestly want to do it right once and never have to worry about it. I owe a lot to my engine builder for pushing other projects aside to make me a priority, but we could just not get the right parts in the right place at the right time. God willing I will make it next year. Thanks for all the support.
John

P.S. It also turns out that I will be taking my girl friend to the wine country on thurs 5/15 (her birthday) as a surprise instead of doing a car thing which makes her MUCH happier. Looking for that silver lining
