For the "new" cars either engine, alloy or iron is a good choice and I think fits well. Now for those who are "picky" about "details" (and I can appreciate that) you "really" need to use an iron block. As far as "re-sale" goes, I think it might be a tough call which one may or may not "bring more" on the market.

But what if a guy has a 1966 CSX car? Is it "OK" to use an alloy block in THAT car? I don't have a problem with that,,,,,but I think "re-sale" value WILL suffer. Somehow,,,,it just doesn't "feel right".
