Isn't the iron eagle their heads? Is it a little M block?

Sounds cool though, lots of cubes. Very Happy

well they do have the heads but this is the Iron Race block.
We couldn’t afford the 5,000 dolor aluminum, so we went with the Iron block. So we settled for the 2,500 dolor block.
It’s based on the 400, its wider and taller, takes a special pan, .400 wider.
Also takes a BBC Cam that is raised .391 , it has a raised deck as well .325,
We figured we might as well go all out
Should be fun, I believe we are going with the Paxton, Novi 2000 as well.
