I received a similar email a while back, regarding the big block rectangular port heads.


If anyone should need either of those part numbers, if you think you might need some in the future, I strongly suggest you purchase them now. You may not see them cast again for an extended period of time. We've waited at least a year for several part numbers. It took nearly 18 months to get what used to be a relatively common big block Chevy intake manifold for a Super Stock engine.



Remember, the Edelbrock foundry is in California. I'm quite sure that California would prefer that it was not. California could make it a lot more difficult, and expensive, to operate that foundry, at the drop of a hat. Understand that it is extremely difficult to get permitting, etc., to build and operate a foundry anywhere in the U.S. at this point. And those currently in control intend to make it more difficult. They certainly have no desire to see you continue to enjoy your hobby/sport.
