Why would a thread regarding the really good news of Dart considering adding Small Block Mopar Blocks to their Iron eagle blocks be booted off this site?? Is that not information that many in the Mopar community might be excited to hear?? What rules did I break or is it a conflict with a site sponsor?? Whatever the reason it's sad and put to a vote I bet the vast majority of those who visit this site would want to know. My shop # is [phone # removed by staff] if anyone cares to enlighten me....
 
I was shocked to see that post disappear so quickly. Our Mopar community needs this to keep moving forward.
 
What? Dart is considering making new unmolested blocks we could buy?!?!? Awesome news!
 
Do you have a link to the manufacturers information? A new member with information like this is usually a scam of some sort and gets deleted.

I approved your thread Bob. Welcome to FABO.

I have sent you notifications and a private conversation explaining. We don't allow email addresses or phone numbers in posts - it says so right on the box you post in. Your posts about the "really good news of Dart" are also spammy… Read your alerts and private messages.
 
I talked to a guy from Dart and he said no way they are making a mopar block, so at this time I think It's BS.
He said it maybe someone else but not Dart at this time, not a big enough market to build a block.
He said he knows the guy that is making the BB, Hemi blocks and he is having a hard time selling the numbers he thought he would.
 
Bob Book is working with Dick Maskin to make blocks. For all the crying, whining, bitching, moaning and general juvenile behavior I see from lack of block availability, here is the chance to have someone compete against Ritter. Competition is better right? Other brands have choices right? Why shouldn't we?

Because the same whiners won't buy a block if they could. It needs work. My stock heads and intake don't fit. Can I run stock rockers? Piss on it then I won't buy one if I can't. Oh, it needs a special cam core....I'm out.


What's pathetic is PONTIAC has aftermarket blocks. PONTIAC! Are you shitting me? I've been doing this long enough to know the mopars outnumber the Pontiacs 5:1 and yet we can't get a block?


It falls back on US. The cheap *** end user.

Do all you can to support Bob and maybe, just maybe you'll have a second choice for blocks.

Don't even get me started on heads. W-2 heads were around and I was one of the few guys at 3 local tracks who actually had them. Same deal, can't use my rockers, can't use my intake, can't use my headers.........same **** different decade.
 
I always try to go to the source to get the right info but this guy in tech was very adiment in his NO WAY were not doing that, so that's what I go with but I hope he was wrong and had no clue. If it is the case then great I hope it happens. It's just like when I tried to get fram to make 6 pac air filters, I had every one I knew call fram and talk to them and they said maybe but it took us 5 years to sell the 5000 we made last time and we wont do a run for less than 5000 and really don't want to sit on them for 5 years or more. So let's give it hell,
who do we call and talk to, I don't think 1 guy can do it.

I agree with you.

The difference I see is Bob Book and who he is, what he does and what he's asking for.

It's certainly not like me calling Dart and asking for blocks. Very few names carry as much prestige as Bob Book.

That's what gives me hope.
 
look at ebay for a 440 aluminum block, $5500 , really, how many they gonna sell !?!
thats not bad for a complete engine
