Cast Aluminum vs Billet Al Blocks
Posted: Sat Jan 08, 2005 11:04 am
Was wondering what the feedback out there is re power and durability of the new generation billet CNC machined al blocks are compared to the conventional race CAST aluminum.
The BILLET al blocks made at www.cnblocks.com appear to offer the very best of what is available providing cast iron block quality ring seal levels, 20-30lb lighter weight than a cast aluminum block yet up to 66% stronger....
these things appear to be near perfect in theory....
if you can use a billet aluminum block that has the advantages of both cast iron and aluminum re good seal, durability yet strength, light weight - best of both worlds
any feedback out there?
