where can i get one of them aluminum blocks?

is it true you have to use copper/asbestos gaskets for the aluminum block?

oh and is it possible to manufacture other parts of the engine to be aluminum?
how did you build that cast it and all ? thats sweet
you have to make molds for the parts, which is a very hard process but it is possible.

Mopar made many SL6 engine items out of aluminum, including the engine block. The head is the hardest SL6 item to find in aluminum but some were made and they are 'out there'.

As we know, the crankshaft, camshaft and connecting rods are the heavy items that will always be made of steel or cast iron but even those items saw weight reduction versions as the years went by.

The SL6 is not known as a light engine but with careful selection of parts, you can get a good power to weight ratio out of one.

They made an Aluminum head for slants? What engines did they fit, will it work on the iron block 225's.
Is there a best head for flow or are they all about the same?
