By the 24th of July the block pattern should be at the foundry. That is the day my son and I will be there to see how things are going. We will take some pictures off the patterns at that time. It will not be too far in the future that we will start taking deposits. This is needed so we know who is interested. But before that we will be casting 3-6 blocks to prove everything out. After that, then we will make blocks for our customers. Approximate price $5900.00 I would like to thank all of you folks for your support with project. I hope this is the beginning of a higher level of Buick Performance.
Great news for the buick community. Did i miss it or do you have a ballpark number on how much these are going to cost? you mentioned deposits that is why i was curious. thanks.
More importantly it will let you make KILLER POWER and keep the thing together. That's what we need! Looking forward to getting my hands on one. Jim Netherland 2007 NMCA Nostalgia Super Stock World Champion B/NSS 67 GS 400
On par with the Mopar block price and the Chevy ZL1 aluminum block is about 5 g's so Mike is not out of the ballpark with this block. :TU:
Must have not been there when i looked at it...it's not even in my quote above. Sorry if it was...but thanks. I won't be able to afford one anytime soon...but i will enjoy watching the other race buick guys whooping some :moonu::spank:
It's more $ to keep re-doing the old one's.An aluminum block is a lifetime investment,it can be welded and repaired if ever broken
I start saving for my new motor as soon as i finish the previous on,about every 2 yrs and now it's over 2 yrs and I just hurt the motor so I'm ready.I'm still driving it hard but it's just a matter of time
