[QUOTE=Expensive Date;2232040] The 525 (and up) hp 502 and up is not a GM block [QUOTE]
I believe you're wrong on this, GM is still offering their versions of the 502 thru the GM Performance Parts division. Just out of curiosity where do you think Merc HP gets the blocks for the 525's and the other 502 based engines from?

New 32 Fountain Pics
I don't think you will be seeing any spy photo's just yet. I was at the Fountain factory two weeks ago and they are still very early in the design stages. They have an old 32 Fever pieced together getting ready to start the process but unless they are really keeping this top secret they have a ways to go yet.
