Stefano and ssl78 have both driven a car with the new zl1 block. They were very impressed to say the least. I too would like to build one. Here is a link, Mike.

I got to see COPO Pete's new ZL-1 block when he tore his engine apart for the "Certified Stock" inspection at the Pure Stock Drags. Looked very nice, and meatier than the original. He said it was a lot better unit than the original also. Oh Petey....!

They are pretty sweet looking that i will say I have some pics of the one in a Chevelle here in hawaii onl my web page. There was a 67 502 Camaro and the Chevelle both running together and you could only hear the ZL-1 engine

My aluminum 427 does sound much different than my aluminum head, cast iron block 427 motor and they are pretty close in build, however I would like to build a new block ZL1 and not be afraid to break it! I have gone 11:45 et @ 118 mph in my Fathom green 69 Camaro 10 years ago when they asked me to leave the race track, due to no roll bar. I would like to build a 12-1 NEW ZL1 motor, not sure what crank I would use or stroke but build a weekend basher. I love horse power and fast cars, my latest is a blown alky 63 Vet race car!!

I have heard that the new ZL1 block is built better than the original. Anyone have a view on this? I would've figured it'd be the other way around.
