I was down to visit Keith and talk about the build for me, last fall. He told me the same about the blocks. He has to machine them after he gets them. I am not going with the aluminum block, though. I want to keep to the "correct" cast block. Does the same things hold true with the cast block? ie. the enlarged water jackets. In reference to the Genesis block, I had heard that Ford discontinued carrying them, because of problems.

A decent 427 - not the worst, not the best, will go from zero to 100 mph and back down again to zero in less than 14 seconds. All thing considered, you can put together a pretty good argument that the 427 Cobra is the ultimate performance car, judged on any basis you want to name."
