Spraying concerns on resleeved block?? I"ve heard that if you plan on spraying a large cubed motor you're better off with a 6.0 iron block rather then a resleeved aluminum block for durability issues. Anyone have any opinions on that? I was planning on building a 422 using ARE's resleeved block and throwing a 200 shot on top of it but now I'm wondering if the iron block wouldn't be a better idea.
Re: Spraying concerns on resleeved block?? Call ARE directly and ask them. My own opinion is iron will give another level of reliabilty. However..do a search and check out ARE's record breaking 8 second car. Its a resleeved LS1 block!!! Im sure they are spraying more than a 200 shot. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
