OK I will check on my end but I think its a bit of putting your head in the sand. Manufacturers can influence A LOT with regard to their dealer network.

Along with several other folks, I'd like to commend the team at World Products for being honest and shooting straight with the LSx community... I appreciate it.
Don't let the naysayers get you down... issues like what you're talking about happen, and while it sucks, there's just not a lot that you can do about it sometimes.
Keep fightin' the good fight, fellas.

Timmy,
We're try desperately to see them from machining in late July. Testing for flow and shipping very early Aug.
I'll post what I know when I know something.
Thanks for asking.

Here's some info from an article in Hot Rod Magazine:
The iron version of the Gen III block is approximately 88 pounds heavier than the svelte, 116-pound aluminum block. The iron block is a not-too-shabby 204 pounds, so you’re probably wondering why anyone would run an iron block if the aluminum block is so lightweight.
102.8 lbs for a block is not bad at all, especially one that has the capabilities that this one should have.

Thanks for the updates. Unlike many vendors who simply feed you story after story, y'all stepped up to the plate and expalined the situation. So, in my book, props to y'all.
Mfg is tough. You aren't the only one with foundry issues. I've spoken with several folks who have had issues either with scheduling or cost that have driven production/work schedules out into left field.
Thanks for the update...

MerlinPro... These block will retain all the factory covers, cam etc? And on the tall deck, will the intake need spacers or how is the tall deck matched up differently? Stroke limit on the tall deck? Thanks.
