[QUOTE="Blkkbgt, post: 16360302, member: 117234"] What you are seeing is not "wear" or any form of "delamination" as you put it. What you are seeing is a casting void in the block and extremely common on Teksids and even WAP block. After the blocks are cast the bolt holes are drilled and threaded and the rest of the block is machined. During this process the bore for the water pump is cut. When this bore is cut voids in the casting in that particular area are uncovered. This is what you are seeing, voids. This is why if you look closely you'll notice the area looks rough cast. If you look at 10 blocks you will also notice the the voids are not the same size or in the same location. I can also tell you that you will have a hard time finding a block that does not display similar voids. Lastly this is NOT a flaw in the block and in no way shape or form reduces the blocks capability. [/QUOTE]
