		| The Ford aluminum cammer blocks I had seen were wet sleeved. I came close to buying one in 1972. The problem was that the sleeves were missing. It would have been too expensive to have new sleeves made. I don't know what he's paying for it. (it can't be cheap) I would rather leave that block for a collector and spend my money on a Shelby block. The Shelby benifits from better casting techniques and other improvments such as double cross bolts and additional cross webbing in the valley area.  |
