Cool. I may try something like that when I have more $$$ to burn.

Those Sube blocks have a lot more buttressing than the ol' Al 225 block, but some could be added to the 225. I have a couple that are already 0.040" over, so prolly won't go further.

I hope to have my 1st Al 225 going sometime next year with about 225 HP.
