I seem to remember Paul Kane mentioning something about some of these being case hardened, and an outright pain to machine. Supposedly newer batches were better? It is just a hunk of steel I suppose, but I'm not sure if they have "2nd's/blems/whatever" either. I have a general distrust for ebay, that's what I was getting at.

I hear you on not trusting Ebay crap.
Thats why I got mine from Paul K. for $50 when he had a few sets for sale a while back and yes they are the harder than the Procomps.
I try to buy most of my stuff from the guys here.

I bought the $59 ebay cat caps. Sitting in my garage for later since I found my c9 block is a little on the thin side to do what I want to do.. 
Time to save up for an a460 block and be done with it!

You won't ever regret it. We can go over and borrow one of Freelanders, he won't be needing it for a while.

One of his A blocks was in Mike's shop when we were in Philpot. I'm pretty sure Bobby would let us in, and we could just say it was being borrowed.

Last I heard, Dave was ice fishing, so I think he may be closer to his stash of parts than we might think. He's a sneaky devil!
