RE: FE block weights

You ought to check out the Shelby or Genesis aluminum blocks, they are reinforced is some places to make up for the aluminum, most notably the three ridges across the lifter valley. Shelby himself built one awhile back that can turn 1300hp and 8000 rpms (I think, my source isn't nearby). All longblock parts were ones that he offers. But look to spend 4-5K for a block and main caps alone.
This thread, so far...
