Plus you have authenticity with the 40 year old block. Genesis is still heavy, has all of those issues and you don't get the authenticity. If you want iron/authenticity, go with the NOS block. If you want new, go with the aluminum and save the weight. I don't see why you'd go with Genesis except for cost reasons - and in that case, stay with the 428 block you already have.
