This is the guy think the Buick 3800 V6 engine is the best engine ever... That'd be about the same time I stopped watching him.
^dude says for the $. And that block was used across Chevy, Olds, Buick and Caddy for 50 years. They are known as bullet prof. Had 4 or 5 in my day from an 88 olds cutlass with the 2.8 to a 2008 3.6 equinox sport. Only recent motors (4.6 vortec, 3.6/8 VVT) had issues, and all top end. Only motors that didnt make it to 200K miles Ive owned.
We used a lot of SS in the nuke industry...304,304L,316 and 316L. One of the problems was it's susceptability to chloride stress corossion cracking. Chlorides (or flourides) would attack the chromium/carbide in the grain boundary causing micro cracks that would then propagate into real cracks under stress...Hence IGSCC, intergranular stress corrosion cracking. The L grades were low carbon and hence less susceptible.
Update on the b17 crash at Bradley.. The guy is a little annoying but decent footage of the crash site and relevant info.

A-Aron, nice job with the video, I like the commentary. I look forward to watching the remainder of the season and seeing you get on the 600! As a big dude, how do you like racing the 300 - are you planning on taking the 300 to some track days to learn more about it?
