Thanks for the advice, I feel more confident about it now. A friend of mine is a machinist and has all the equipment at his home shop to put receiver grooves into my block. I really trust this guy, but I can’t understand why so many people receiver groove the heads instead of the block.

I just want to make sure I am not missing something, other than the convenience of not having to disassemble the engine down to the block. I can be with out the car for a while right now, as I have no intention of finding out how good it handles in the snow.
