In comparison to other engine families, the FE really has the short straw.

If the blocks were cast by Dart, Edelbrock, World, etc., I would have more confidence in them, but foundries are seeing runs of 100 FE blocks at a time and the dedication/QC just isn't there.

All of the major FE block manufacturers switched foundries last year. That should tell you something.
Well I am sticking with the FE since that is what i already have. Wish me luck with the next batch. reliability with new parts is what i am after.
