There are 2 guys in this thread that switched to BBC. If they sell their stuff then there are 2 buyers that could have potentially bought new blocks. I don't believe that these blocks are a ZERO net profit and even if they are it is still no reason to not have them in stock. Either you are in business or not in business. Having customers wait for months is a good way to be out of business. Service/availability is just as important as the actual product. There is a generation coming up behind us that will need this support and availability or a BBC or LS motors will be in their future. I started my business in 1992 and if I ran it this way it would have lasted till 1993! I think there is a big upside to all this and all it requires is a little salesmanship. With everyone going forced induction and big nitrous these blocks should be flying off the shelves replacing 45 year old stuff. The crowmod could be a huge selling tool if somebody would tap into it.
