Here is the correspondence I had with GM Parts Direct:
My Question ~ Why is there over $410 in shipping charges for part # 16248381?
THAT IS THE TRUE DEFINITION OF INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OR STUPIDITY ~ YOU DECIDE??
The Response from GM Parts Direct:
Hi David,
Please accept my sincerest apology for your inconvenience. Part number 16248381 has been discontinued and is no longer available from General Motors.
Thank You,

On the topic of using a 454 Memcal on a 454, well I think it might be best to go that route. The reason I'm searching for a new Memcal is because I'm troubleshooting what appears to be a faulty Memcal. The Memcal in question is almost always retarding timing, sometimes with the ignition in the "on" position the knock counts go to 255 without the engine running.
