Keep in mind, the service blocks do have a few advantages - reinforced ribbed block, some say higher nickel content, although I'm not sure that is proven and can run hydraulic cam and SFT cam (although since you want authenticity, there is only one choice for you  )
How many miles on the engine? Was it sonic tested before it was built to detect any core shift issues? |
The odometer shows less than 2k miles.
I haven't been told it was sonic tested, and I haven't seen anything about in what build paperwork I was able to see. I just don't know either way (yet).
My original opinion was the same: rather have a side oiler than any other engine. But the quality of workmanship on the top oiler is professional and stout.
It's kinda like being an ass man who's been sidetracked by a nice chest.
