The Babicz is a nice piece of kit, though the trem block is a bit lighter than i was expecting.
Ill put it together before I go looking for replacements.
On the plus side, the 6 holes are beveled and the screws are notched - a la PRS, this thing should have pretty decent sustain.

If you ever do end up looking for a replacement, you could consider getting a Supervee Bladerunner Bridge, I had a Chrome one on my old Black Fender Mexican Strat and it did work well, the Sustain Block is made from a light metal that SuperVee call "Sustainium", what makes the Bladerunner Bridge different to most other Strat bridges is that the Bridge pivots on a thin piece of spring-steel rather than a set of 6 screws, there are four screws which are simply used to attach the bridge securely to the body, here's a link to the SuperVee webpage so you can see what the Bladerunner Bridge looks like:
