There would be a whole lot less Hemi cars out there without them.
Just FYI, if you hear of any approved aftermarket blocks for a Pontiac 301 or a Chevy inline 6, please let me know.

Hi Billy, there are many discussions on the Mopar forums of guys that have paid 4 to 5K and waited 3-4 years for an aftermarket block. Every few years another company makes a small amount of them then they stop, most of them aren't legal for stock anyway. The GMs and Fords benefit from them greatly as far as adding more power and the Chevy guys can buy them all day long for half of what it cost to get on the 3 year waiting list for a Chrysler block that they may never get.
