Default New vs old

Have built up a Genesis for my ERA. Great block, has stronger webs in lifter valley than old blocks. Also has thicker corners where originals tended to crack. I used old and new...I'll buy new castings over a 20+ year old block anyday as the investment is over 10K to do it right.
