    Have anyone heard of this company RPM MAXX? They sell aftermarket engine blocks, looks like a knock off of a Dart block. I have not got a price on this block yet. I'm thinking about going with an aftermarket block, so I'm looking for some options and prices. Looking for something that will hold about 600 hp with a power adder. DSS claims their stock 302 block will hold up to 550 hp but i'm scared of stock blocks with that much power. Do any have one of their blocks?

    Dart SHP block $1800 the cheapest I have found, hp rating 600
    Ford Boss $1700, hp rating unknown
    Ford factory 351W 2 bolt $1150, hp rating $600 I was told but not sure

    I think ford has a special on their boss 331 short block right now...its like 2,000.
    might want to look into that. so you get the bottom end for like $300...sounds like a deal to me.

    Ford Racing looks like they rasied their prices a little. I found some info in another forum. Looks like it comes from overseas. I may have to try DSS since they have some sort of Support System you can buy to help the stock block hold some power. I'm not sure but it seems to work from looking at other forums.
