Cast iron sounds a lot stronger to me. Also, what about bolting steel to alloy, i.e like on thermostat housings, the bolts always get ruined for some reason.

sure they were about 4.5k when they first started. seems great value! I picked one up at the racing car show years back. Think u can get to 2.5L ish easy enough. Also think they have RWD ford stud pattern in the gearbox end too.

great for the smash into trees at the weekend brigade.
