ah right, thought it would of been something like that.
what normally fails on them? as if they are cheap enough would you not be able to line them with liners and long stud them?

ah right, thought being cheap materials the cylinders would of failed due to the pressure etc hence the liner question...
shame they are cheap materials as they would be worth weight in gold if they were decent... does anyone cast decent copies of the blocks?

Cosworth make an alloy block replacement, but have had no experience of them so cannot comment on strength, i believe mark shead at MAD was looking into them, there is a thread on here somewhere about them http://www.cosworth.com/shop_item.php?productid=470
