We are finalizing the pricing shortly and plan to have the block ready to
take orders in early May as the Al block will be going to the foundry at
the end of April. Currently the patterns for the shell core boxes with be
sent out this week to be cast in iron to ensure proper life when we start
production. This is later than we had originally thought, but this is where
it all happens and we must assure our selves that this part is made
properly. The iron block will be six weeks behind the AL block.

WE plan to offer short blocks in the future in several different HP ranges.
This will not be until the 4th Quarter at the present.Technical Improvements

I used to work for an fella who was American-bred & born. And he screwed me and a bunch of others out of our last few weeks of pay; We got the "just hang in there" speech, then he skipped town....and left us and our suppliers all hanging.

As far as cars go, if you want to buy a quality 4 door CAR, not an SUV or truck you are pretty much buying an import.

I dont really enjoy the car but I get in it and drag my but to work every day it starts and runs everytime I turn the key

BUT I do enjoy driving so when I want to enjoy myself I will be able to climb in the mustang push the accel pedal to the floor and hang on. Feel the power that you wont find in but a few american NEW cars and No japaneese cars

JUST my perspective
