New block

97cobrasvt · 04-04-2008, 06:58 PM

I am looking for a windsor based sportsman block. The question is where can I get one at a fair price. I have looked at a few places and dang they are high. Just wondering in case I need one. Thanks Steven

I have 2 standard 351 blocks if you decide to go with a stock one.

I have a 351 block plus the one in my car. Well I dont think the one in my car is damaged but I was thinking if I am going to go through it I might as well go ahead and purchase a good block and build it right. So next time I can really spray it and brake some other stuff instead of the motor

. Thanks anyway Steven

Those 351 blocks are supposed to be pretty tough. Something like 750hp.

I was stretching it already at my last dyno session spraying it 250. I want to spray it 300 eventually

What are the casting numbers on the blocks you guys have?

And how much would you sell one for

late 60s and early 70s are the best blocks that ford made. i have a c8 casting 351 2v, and a c8 casting for a 289.
