LMFAO! I am sorry I meant the LSX block. I haven't talked to anyone about the Warhawk block I looked quick and responded quick and it didn't register until I got you guys PM's sorry for the confusion.Tiago and sr71bbjr, I wouldn't worry too much it was only in high hp applications LOL, and Tiago had Eric build his motor so I am sure it is fine as I talked to him about it and knew about the issues.

We're building a Warhawk to be used with an ATI ProCharger F3R-139 for this car.

Who is Eric?

The only thing I like about the Warhawk Block (that I know of) is it's aluminum. I'm planning a street car, and would definitely like to knock off the extra weight

maybe I am just slow but I thought I read that the Warhawk has a revised oiling galley system? Is this true and does it help over the LSX block or does the LSx block take care of this too? Or am I just getting fed BS again by their PR dept.

I know it's not easy to answer, but I'm curious to hear an answer if there is one...

If there's not, give it a shot anyways
