Wow, that is a significant weight difference for the Genesis Cast block. I understand reinforcement, but that is a good bit of extra meat.
I spoke with a reputable builder and according to him there have been a lot of issues with the genesis blocks. On top of issues with the castings, there apparently is a supply problem as well. That's unfortunate because the price is appealing. Im just repeating what i heard and it could just be that they have a preference for one manufacturer over the other.
