>>>*Yes, they actually used a completely different pour.

Now I concede that metalurgy really isn't my field, other than the basics and some hardening techniques I learned, mostly from messing up a few dozen items before I got it right.

But I do know that the older 304, 345 & 392 IH blocks were so hard I had to cut them .015" at a time or the old Rottler airfloat would begin to squawk a bit...

Those engines were designed for extreme load, lugging running dumpsters and power takeoffs, different world....*EB
