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.
