I think Pond and Shelby have proven that their blocks are reliable. Depending on what you're ultimately looking for in terms of either a replica of the original sideoiler (Pond) or the even more beefier CSX block, I eschewed using an older block because: a) very hard to find a good unrepaired one, b) if you do find a good one, they're as expensive as a new aluminum block and 3) losing 100-125 lbs from the front of the car is, as Jamo would say, "muy goodo."
