i was always under the impression that the factory 351s were strong enough to handle what you could throw at them, it was the 302s that were weak.
youd probably be much better off getting a junkyard 351 and taking it to a machine shop, then spending all that extra money on a nice set of heads, get a custom cam, and some long tubes. then youd still have money left over for other things.

ive read that the man of war engines are very good. i think they have 4 bolt mains too. yes you could make it fuel injected.

+1 FOR THE MAN O WAR...ALSO HEARD GOOD THINGS ABOUT THEM...

P Zero

+1, Instead of fuel injection , mill the heads to get it to around 11.5:1, get a Victor jr carb intake, get a more aggressive cam, that thing would make hardcore power.

Do you guys think that block is better than a DSS Block?

Man its hard to do it right!!! [:@]

$7k is pretty steep for a 351hp motor. I would just buy a stock block from a salvage yard for ~$100 and a 393/408 rotating assembly from me for $999 shipped. Then take it to a local machinist to build it for you. I always prefer to have my stuff built local so if something happens it's a lot easier to go there and get the problem worked out. The problem with crate motors are they are only as good as the $10/hr. guy that assembled it that day. Sure it's got good parts, but I'd rather have someone I know put it together.

If you really wanted an aftermarket block, I still think you could do it for less money and have someone accountable and local build it.

BTW, the DSS blocks are a scam. It just a stock block. I can sell you a level 8000 block if it will make you feel good.

Yeah thats why i'm thinking of DSS, they are 10 minutes from my house...
