Mass in the right places be it hard or harder means a lot also!
A block that weighs 800 lbs when the motor may only be only making 100 hp will live forever, in fact you would have to break the crank or a rod to do harm to it! On the other hand as in our case where the block weights in at less then 250 lb yet we can easily yank 600 hp or more out of it is a far far different story!!

Ahem,
Crankshafts: Pearlitic Malleable Iron (1st 1956 PMD cast crankswere installed along with SAE 1046 forged steel cranks in 1956 models) Full descript and annealing process in Paper by K.B. Valentine SAE Vol 66, 1958. Bismuth and boron added to improve precipitation of temper carbon. Iron cranks proved better in machining, wear, fatigue, and field study. Crankshaft history : forged, Arma Steel, PMi, Nodular Iron. Precision Cast is Nodular Iron. PMD Connecting Rods : Arma Steel, weight 31.7 oz, or Nodular Iron 1963-1979 PMD "production forged rods: SAE 1140 or Early 60s S.D. versions:SAE 4140 (some not heat-treated). SD-455 Rods: SAE 8640 chrome-moly Ni steel Piston Pin: Extruded SAE 1016 Steel Camshaft: PMI "alloy irom" Pistons: tin-plated Aluminum alloy with steel struts Top ring: heavy chrome plated 2nd ring: lubrite-coated Rocker-Arms: cyanide-hardened stamped steel Pushrods: Cyanide-hardened steel Main Bearings: Moraine 400 No block materials callout. I Seems to be missing a REF that calls out the Valve materials, and such. Might update this. 1968 Pontiac Service Manual: Block & Heads: Alloy Cast Iron Crank: PMI (and we know they show a "N", and some 428s show "Arma Steel" Connecting Rods: Arma Steel Cam: Hardened alloy cast iron Crank gear: carburized and hardened steel Cam: aluminum with nylon Front damper, flywheel: cast iron Rings Upper and 2nd- Moly filled channel, cast iron low perf 2nd rings got lubrite coated iron Piston Pin: extruded SAE 1041 ( 6-cyl Ext SAE 5015) Valves: Intakes SAE 1041, HO&RA use SAE 8440, EXH 21-2N Aluminum faced, Chrome plated stems.

FYI: Block and cap showed identical dent with 10mm ball and equal force applied....

Those two checking in at the same hardness is what I would expect.
Thanks for sharing!
