Let it warm up first.
Jigabop,
Excellent point. I agree; any engine should be warmed up before driving. That's one of the benefits of using an engine block heater in the winter for outside tempertures below 25 degrees F. |

56 block is the only one I have seen so far that has not had any cracking issues.
for cracked blocks, I have seen 53 blocks the most common 55 blocks I've seem a few crack, and STORM blocks I have seen one or two crack. they all crack in the same spot. |

wherever you can find one for a decent price...
wrecking yard, ebay, craigslist, etc... 55 and storm blocks are rare to crack though. even 53 blocks are pretty rare to crack... get an uncracked block for a decent price and take care of it. warm it up or take it easy on it before driving it hard. even an uncracked 53 would work...my block is a 53 block with 240k miles and 576hp to the wheels... no cracks :tu: |
