[QUOTE="DCguy, post: 16884502, member: 196849"] The Nemak block is an excellent choice and has been used successfully in many big hp builds. I am not sure on how brittle or soft the block material is compared to a Teksid, but I think we're splitting hairs here. I really like the Nemak because it doesn't have freeze plugs all over it....think it only has a couple. That makes block prep easier and the chance for leaks is reduced by a good margin. The Nemak also has really big beefy main caps compared to the Teksid. They are both 4 bolt mains, but i'm not sure on the side bolt differences. The Teksid is an 8mm side bolt I believe(?) because it uses jack screws......not sure if the Nemak is larger. If it uses 9mm or 10mm that's a huge upgrade/benefit when you're talking about 1000 hp setup. [/QUOTE]
