Friend of mine split two 302 blocks right down the middle of the lifter valley running a 471 blower @ 9 psi..... After that debacle, he bought one of the SVT blocks, used the same internals and no more problems. Some say the Mexican built blocks are a bit stronger, don't know, never have tried one of them....
