I think the Mexico engines are made a little stronger then the American
blocks. I read this in Hotrod Magazine way back in the early 90's. Anyway
the company was called "Target Master" . don't know if its the same
company.

>The "regular" Goodwrench 350 is made in Mexico, as are the Vortec

>Mexico" on it that I've found.
It's "Hecho in Mexico" and I got news about that....even the high dollar
Vortec blocks say it....it is my understanding that most blocks are cast
there now for Chevy replacement engines. The reason I got a Vortec for mine
was HP and the fact that I thought they weren't made in Mexico. I was
concerned about the strength, knowing the iron might be thin walled and of
lesser strength & quality than the older American cast iron blocks. I don't
know yet if that's true, but next time I get the urge to replace a motor,
I'll be getting a block from the 60's or 70's and redoing it in someone's
shop....that way I know it's strong enough to take the HP and that it will
last a long time.
