    Doesn't golden do the machine work for ERE?

    No, not all of it. Karl just grabs blocks from them sometimes. Most people bring him their own blocks. He has a guy in maryland just for splayed 4 bolt conversions and another really good machinist for bore/hone/decking. He saved @Ltconverts motor that had some small rust blemishes in the bore without going nuts, went from 4.030 to 4.032

    that golem shortblock has a CAST scat crank and forged scat rods. the mahle pistons are not specified but say forged. that golem engine also has four bolt mains. but also reported by tubby the reviews of late have not been spectacular. my shortblock has forged Howards/Callies forged crank and Callies forged compstar rods as well as Mahle forged flat top pistons all very strong and very reliable.mine is two bolt main but with reinforced Pro-Gram studded main caps, very strong. also this week its 1300 dollars cheaper then the link you provided, the shop that built this engine has been building them for a very long time. lets try to keep this thread dedicated to selling this block. thanks @Tubby Z28 for the kind words,wish you had the funds lol. lets get this block sold. year is 97 as stated in original post

    Thanks, Chaz
