The motor in my 1992 ford mustang, will the block hold up to a 331 build, trick flow top end kit with a mild cam?

if the block is prep. right i dont see why not. im a beleiver in seasoned blocks. it just needs to be prepared by a good knowledgable person.

i thought you needed the older block with the thick webbing to avoid splittign the block..i think it was early 70's era...

not really, i see them at the track running 347s with no problems spray and all

he didnt say anything about how much hp he is expecting so I only said it would be fine, as long as he stay in the safe number some between 300-400hp i believe it is

Assuming you aren't running a power adder, you probably aren't going to crack that block w/ an N/A application....usually don't see power levels high enough. FYI, 450-500 rwhp on a safe tune is all the block is good for.

it will be fine in motor trim but if u get a supercharger it might look like this

+1 to everything posted above. You will be more than fine. A setup like that is only going to put you around 350rwhp.... you could run a SC with that if you wanted to. Just not tons of boost.... or a small shot

stock 5.0 block is good until about 450hp
