Message	Thanks Milo, I will take number three :) Considering all the time and effort the Dailey dry sump took and how few people took it up, I doubt a billet block would see much traction. However nice to see that it is possible and when you are chasing the high HP race engine, the block and the girdle are the weak link. There is just no meat around the bores and girdle walk/flex is a problem. If you guys hand the hat around and make some donations I could be convinced, especially as in New Zealand dollars its $28,000.
