There was one in the machine shop when I was having my engine done. The same fella that ground my crank was rebuilding this old flathead. He was retired but came in to do cranks and vintage stuff. I asked him about the new french blocks and accidentally sent him into a tirade. Apparently he was not impressed with 'em. Can't remember what he said, but I am glad the wife and kids weren't there! Does anyone know of any issues with the french blocks? Did y'all know that the Ardun conversion heads were made by Zora Arkus-Duntov? The same guy who designed the 30/30 cam and did all the work on the Corvette. He named the heads after the first few letters of his name Ar-Dun. Cheers, Aaron
