Hey David, here's hoping you can do another run of your best in class engine block braces.
they are on every engine i build although i am now down to zero supply. the brace adds stiffness to the 5 major block components in addition to assuring no oil leaks from the pan.
as you can see from the pics it is exquisitely designed and executed. just look at how perfect the reliefs are milled for the pan flutes.
when recently faced w the possibility of no further Garfinkle braces i took one to a fairly sophisticated shop i work with and asked them to give me a quote.
bottom line is you must have an amazing deal as i ended up w a quote right at your sales price. BTW, i never, repeat never, will offer the unit unless you are totally out of the market.
put me down for five and i will need a continuing supply as i consider them an essential part of my engines. (

i also think your engine torque brace should be on all FDs...
good luck,
howard
