[QUOTE="Jpjr, post: 1562028, member: 20896"] I've heard things about Mustang aluminum blocks being very unpredictable when they heat up. Don't have any personal exp. though. Aluminum is lighter, and if properly built, plenty strong. That said, I'm very glad I have an iron block.. because I know all things considered its stronger and will endure mods better. The guy who says its a fact that the aluminum block is better is not basing it off physics. I don't doubt that an alum. could support 1200 hp.. but for how long? And why aren't they using auminum in NASCAR then? [/QUOTE]
