Default weak 6.5 blocks
I keep hearing that the Chevy 6.5 blocks are prone to cracking. What can be done to strengthen the block? I'm having my 6.5 rebuilt in 2 weeks. Thanks in advance.

This sectioon is mostly a "Hi Im New and I am..." section.

To get the best answer for that you should post in the Chevy forums further down the main forum page...

Welcome aboard tho!
