I thought it nice to offer you a "get of jail card", because once you read those facts, there's no further retort.

I'm a statistical analysis kinda guy with real world data, independent and dependent variables, etc. Once you have the study setup with multiple FE engines, both cast iron OEM blocks, Shelby, Pond, BBM, Side Oiler Garage aluminum and cast iron blocks all with the same parts but for the block and related pieces that go with the block and then run them all on the same dyno in the same atmospheric conditions and if the various alloy blocks make a statistically measurable difference in HP, then and only then will I believe it.
Otherwise, just theory, chemistry sets and hot air. Until that happens, I don't want to hear about books and hearsay. No "get of jail card" necessary. Thank you very much.
