burnz digs his own grave...then promptly jumps right in....
i wasn't 100% sure so i stayed out of the slanging match but i distinctly remember holden stating the blocks were cast in mexico when the alloytec launched in 2004/2005. They stated their intention to swap to local casting but when ion when belly up that stopped i believe.
Since Holden has not made a song and dance about moving alloy block casting to australia then it seemed clear to me they were still getting it from overseas. The go auto link provided above does specify the blocks and heads will continue to be sourced from mexico and hungary. It does not specify which one does which (assume mexico does the block) but either way burnz, Holden DOES NOT cast the V6 alloytec block locally.
Is that clear enough?
