I would pass on the Aluminator. I am getting ready to start and pull mine out this coming week. Here is the link as to what has been going on with it. I think I am just going to put an iron block in and be done with it.Or you could get an aluminator short/longblock.
Op, good luck! Post up some pictures by using the "Insert Image" function on the forum as you progress.
