      Unfortunately, not all of us were financially literate early. I was 35 when I finally educated myself and started taking steps. I went from $176,000 in debt with zero savings or retirement to now, 2 years later, fully debt-free and over $1000,000 net worth. I know that doesn't SOUND like a lot, but I'm incredibly proud of it. Now I'm fast-tracking my wealth building (investing $400,000 annually) and don't owe a dime to anyone. It's a good feeling!

      Keep wishing for USA foundry components. Cost, environmental impact and insurance cost make the US uncompetitive in the casting and foundry industries. If you are hoping for steel and all of its processing processes to return be ready to pay for it.

    There were so many questions that should have been asked and so much more information he could have volunteered. Hopefully his lack of enthusiasm doesn't push away prospective buyers. But he did give one bit of information I found interesting, and his comment left me thinking they are more concerned with the race shop engine builder's opinions than anyone else's which is ok to an extent, but more engines are built in garages than engine shops, and real world opinions from end user, the people using it for a purpose would go a long way to invigorate BBC usage.

    Callie's T shirt Energy Block? I overhaul aircraft engines for a living. Do my own car engines. Selling a product you want to project a sense of superiority. But short of acting putout that someone wants a question answered. Selling engines you never know who the buyers are and just lookers. And the lookers can spread the word if they don't buy. I shy away from customers that need the ego boost. there usually trouble before, during and after.

    Why Another Big block Chevy iron Block. How many are there, a dozen ?? Few Big blocks have risen more in popularity recently than the Big block FE cross bolted 427 block. Probably has something to do with Shelby’s death and the “Ford vs Ferrari” movie. The new aluminum Tunnel Port heads and intakes are very interesting as well,flowing over 400 cfm. They outperform the originals which were heavily influenced by the SOHC intake port. They were the ones that brought the Ford FE 427 into parity with the Hemi in 68 when they appeared until 71 when the aero cars were legislated out of existence.

    This guy knows something he is hiding as he does not want to offer up information. And also notice he has shifty eyes, so either its an early release with no rigorous testing, made over seas and he does not want to expose , or ????????. I do not care where its made, I just want to be enlightened as to HP expectations and the ability's to hold its bores. The Dart blocks, and World products blocks have been real good for the last 25 years for us. This may also be a good choice but need more real world testing.

No will match the quality control, engineering and manufacturing abilities of Callies period. The guy did fine informative but reserved. The product sell its self. No need for a bs infomercial.

I mean, I wouldn't be upset about another option either LOL.
