That was the point...

Thanks

 

People here take things to the "extreeme" (sic) because this is "Advanced Tech", and we like to be technically correct. In each case, what you perceive as nitpicking, non-technical, unrelated issues were simply responses to points you chose to raise.

In all honesty, I should have just closed the thread based on the original post, because it was so far from being a factual question that is doesn't even qualify as "advanced tech"... but often these threads have a way of salvaging themselves and providing information that is helpful. But this thread has gone nowhere fast.

Fred,

If you are entertaining a motion to close this thread, I so move.

You are right about the salvaging of the thread later on.. My point was just that... I was just wondering why where the Al bow tie blocks never used on the street by the hi power street cars? It was just to get deeper on the issue, I just didn't know exactly where to start.

I was happening to be reading a book on how to build chevrolets and they talk much hipe about the bow tie blocks and the way to build them. Obviously it is oriented to the racer not the daily driver. So the point was on why wasn't it feasable to run such a setup on the street.

The crate engines with those blocks are runing 750+fwhp.
